I hate my social anxiety
My social anxiety is so bad, I can’t even comment under my friend’s posts on social media because I’m scared of what people will think about it. Even while playing games, I get scared to talk to teammates

Start small—try commenting on a close friend’s post with something simple like “This looks great!” and build from there. Remind yourself that most people aren’t overanalyzing what you say, and it’s okay to make mistakes. If it’s gaming, stick to quick phrases like “Good job!” to ease into talking. Take a deep breath when you feel nervous, and don’t overthink it—people are usually focused on themselves, not judging you. I used to be an overthinker with social anxiety too, but over time, I grew out of it and now work with politicians. Trust me, things gets better with age.
