I am proud of myself!

C.W. brief mention of anxiety

 

Hello friends! I just wanted to come on here and tell you all that I am very proud of myself. So, I suffer from social anxiety, and today, I was able to order pizza over the phone without feeling awkward, anxious, or wanting to sink into the floor. I actually felt normal for once. Anyway I just wanted to share that good news with you all!! :))

@Mars_Elliot this is honestly so so great and you should be very proud of yourself, it's important to rejoice in these wins! I hope this has given you a bit more confidence for other social interactions since then! How have you been going over the past month? Heart

CONGRATS. IM SO PROUD OF YOU. It's something that may sound small but it's still a hill that you climbed over. I'm really happy for you, and keep up the good work!

 

Do you mind sharing any tips that you used to help you feel more comfortable or get you through the phone call? I would love to know Robot Very Happy

Order pizza AND on the phone? That's so much adulting in one post! Congrats @Mars_Elliot, I'm super excited for you. This post just made me so happy!

 

Now onto the big question, did you put pineapple on your pizza? Smiley LOL

Oh hey is this your new account @Mars_Elliot? 🙂 Good on you for achieving your goal of conquering your anxiety over the phone when ordering pizza! Social anxiety is tough but as you've shown us, it is so treatable and people can overcome it, one step at a time 😄 I did a social anxiety group a year and a bit ago and found it so helpful- of course I've had setbacks and that's totally normal
