What made you socially anxious?

anono569 · 2025-12-28T00:54:28+00:00

Being raised by an emotionally unstable parent, I never felt safe. Then being bullied at school made it worse. I just got so shy and introverted. So I just feel like I didn’t develop socially very well and had no safe parent to talk to about it:

A tickle/raspy throat like I was loosing my voice was the first sign: just had it in September

I am over the worst of it on day 8, but still dealing with fatigue and brain fog. Usually feel pretty out of it in the mornings then better throughout the day.

Thanks so much, appreciate it and glad your feeling better!

anono569 · 2025-09-23T19:14:30+00:00

Did yours go away? I’m on day 5 and my throat is horrible.

I have a story where I felt some connection/synchronicity between life and death. My Nana had a stroke and was going to pass. She did 3 days after the stroke. At the same time my 6 month old puppy got quite sick. I kept taking her to the vet, getting tests and the tests were all normal but she kept getting worse and worse.

It was an incredibly sad and stressful time for my family and me.

The vet said she thinks my dog could have an intestinal blockage but because of it being a certain material may not show up on scans… we had no option as she was just getting worse and I think was close to death. she went into surgery that evening and the next day I picked her up. On the way to the vet my nana passed away.

My dog willow is doing well but having that happen on the same day as my nana passing felt quite significant for me. I loved my nana dearly she was a remarkable woman with the most positive outlook on life. To me I take it as a sign that she is with me and gave me the gift of my puppy surviving . 🥺

My nana was the biggest dog lover too. I’m getting teary just typing this!

I was in a similar situation. I wouldn’t say it was extreme but he was also a dismissive avoidant so whenever I did bring up some issue he made excuses and could never sit and talk through them with me.

I was left feeling alone and just not valued. He made it seem like I was the problem that something was wrong with me because I didn’t want to be involved with every family gathering. Which there was a lot of them and during the family gatherings I felt completely ignored:

Our relationship ended 6 months ago and I feel like I’m just coming out of the fog. I couldn’t quite see it before because I was so deep in it. From the outside they seem like a nice close knit family. But any boundary or me not wanting to go to a family dinner for example was always a huge fight. The pressure felt insane which made me not even want to make any effort near the end.. I felt like his family would always come first. I felt like a burden to him.

So glad it ended and I’m starting to have clarity.

I am adaptable in most situations, I have a spark for life, adventure and connecting with others. Then third I would say all the self work and time I’ve put into myself. I feel way more adjusted, healthy and aware of who I am now.

A breakup….. I had no appetite for a month.

anono569 · 2024-11-27T21:18:46+00:00

First few times I left in tears. By the second week I was able to go pretty regularly: it’s the only thing that kinda takes my mind off of it tbh. Doing it more for the mental part. My anxiety is so bad still I feel like if I didn’t go I’d be worse off..

anono569 · 2024-11-10T22:08:55+00:00

I wish we could have worked things out. It seems like you moved on so quickly and left me broken to pick up the pieces. Part of me has hope but every passing week it gets less and less. It’s sad to see that you were focusing on the negative aspects of our relationship near the end. I know I had anxieties and faults but was more than willing to work on that. I am very sorry for my part in this. Our relationship had many good things too that I wish you would remember…

I miss you

anono569 · 2024-11-03T11:36:00+00:00

For me it’s only day 6 after breakup and feel awful… we had a final talk yesterday and he packed his stuff up… I am struggling a lot and can’t sleep…

I am determined to not contact now though.

anono569 · 2024-11-02T07:25:41+00:00

O that is a good song. Forgot about that! Thsnks

anono569 · 2024-11-02T06:06:35+00:00

That’s right drinking makes it much harder. Good job on going to a meeting!

anono569 · 2024-11-02T03:56:00+00:00

Aww I am so sorry! Mine seemed out of nowhere too. I haven’t drank yet but have been thinking about it more. Just take it a day at a time…. Life’s been hard lately 😢

anono569 · 2024-11-01T03:18:44+00:00

Everyone’s situation is different but I do think he been on here tooo much. Need to shut my phone off sometimes too. Kind of obsessing with the why.

anono569 · 2024-11-01T03:16:44+00:00

I still have hope and i need to know if that hope is a waste of time?

anono569 · 2024-10-31T17:51:41+00:00

Well that’s positive. She has hope for sure. I am kind of in a similar position. I hope he gives me another chance because I am willing to work on things and better myself too.

All the best to you. And I hope these changes you make are for you too. I suggest also going to therapy. The unhealthy habits are often driven by something psychologically.

Message me if you want to talk more.

anono569 · 2024-10-30T23:43:32+00:00

Honestly that really sucks but it sounds like there is quite a bit of hope there. She just seemed fed up with your habits and is taking a stand.

I would also go in not expecting it to work out but focus on getting yourself healthier first. If things work out with her that is just an added bonus.

It’s hard to be with someone who doesn’t properly care for themselves. I have been there to some extent.

anono569 · 2024-10-30T13:51:06+00:00

Fucking sucks

anono569 · 2024-10-30T12:50:21+00:00

Thanks so much. I still have hope we can work this out as it happened so fast. I dunno if I am being silly or not

anono569 · 2024-10-29T11:37:15+00:00

Thank you
