Default TryingToHuman

Hi guys,

I made my account early last year, but ironically was too anxious to post on here. I made an account after I was asked to be maid of honour for my sister's wedding. Which has since been and gone lol- and let's just say my username is fitting!

I am 26yrs old, feeling like I'm stuck in my 16yr old mind-set, soon to be 27. I always thought by the time I'd be in my 20's, I'd have my shit together, social anxiety would be a thing of the past, and I wouldn't struggle with simple interactions, face-to-face or otherwise. But we move - still fighting the good fight.

I find the messages posted on here really helpful, helps keep the deluded thoughts that I'm the only one who feels the way I do at bay and I don't feel so alone in it.

I feel like I'm babbling so I'll leave it here - thank you and hello

Hello!

Wow being a maid of honour must have been a lot SA-wise!

But at least a there's cake at the end of it all!

Hello and welcome from me, too! My brother's wedding was an anxiety-ridden nightmare, I ended up sneaking off early. Not an experience I hope to repeat ever.
