hey guys! i just did an update video on how my social anxiety is now and how its improved, watch it here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHLLd2StjMxqZsk !

[@avalonjustin]

Yo Monica, it's great to hear your anxiety is much improved.I'm like twice your age and had SA since elementary school. Look, there are going to be times when you feel like you're having setbacks or you might worry that you didn't change very much. When you get those thoughts, remember how much you've accomplished. Remember how hard you tried and how far you've come. For me, the insecurity and awkwardness is still there, but we learn to push ahead anyway!

[@josepirela1372]

Excellent Video! Apologies for the intrusion, I would appreciate your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Proutklarton Being Quiet Plan (should be on google have a look)? It is an awesome one of a kind guide for getting rid of anxiety and panic attacks fast minus the normal expense. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my cousin at last got cool success with it.

[@faith-ly3ju]

I hate it when so many people who don't have social anxiety say "Oh my god I feel the same way." Or "Oh me too." I also hate when people don't think it's real. I've gotten so many raised eyebrows when I tell people I have social anxiety. It's frustrating and overwhelming and I hate it.

[@hinachan6298]

i think that to be untrue. I've had a bf but really that didn't say anything. I was always anxious around them and unable to let loose to even hold a solid easy convo without feeling weird they've pointed it out sometimes and it always felt awkward.@Starscream91

[@hinachan6298]

tbh they kind of sought me out because i seemed intriguing and different than the average 'loud' or 'outgoing' girl who i guess didn't give problems? but it always eventually backfired because they got bored.@Starscream91

[@olivia.l13]

exactly it’s sooooo annoyingn

[@einyoutubenutzer5184]

Faith Alexa I can really understand you. But for me it is pretty hard to know if I have social anxiety or if I am just extremely shy. In school during lessons I never raise my hand because I am too afraid. I also get physical symptoms like sweating, shaking and a blank mind. I feel so lost right now, because I am not sure if I have social anxiety or not and I dont want to tell lies about serious issues like this....

[@moonmagick8182]

Social anxiety ruined my life. I no longer have a single friend thanks to it.

[@isthatyoufather5999]

Social anxiety is hard. I couldn't handle high school with my anxiety so I had to drop out. I tried everything else and it didn't work. So now I'm going to get my GED.

[@Nike_707]

Well I'm in this situation now too...and I don't know if I drop it or not, but school it'ss destroying mentally..

[@solomonk3189]

I used to get bad grades in subjects because I was too scared to present in class. I still fail English because the teacher always gives group work and I hate it, people may not want me in their group, I used to ask to join groups and they declined, so I don't anymore. They usually get upset if my teacher sends me to their group because my voice is really soft. I've had group members outright tell me that they don't want me in their group because I'm too quiet.

[@bun-e9361]

Yeah I know how you feel, I've been out of school for at least a year now (I know it's bad) and I am due to return in a few days, I have friends, but I'm scared they've left me behind, and I find it hard to speak up like I used to. It sucks that this happens, but I hope things get better for you too.

[@formxr]

Christina S Classmates sound like dicks. I would never decline anyone to be in my group unless there was a size limit.

[@morbidalas5578]

Christina S Don't you hate them? You should! Let that hatred buildup.

[@Maggieoo-o7i]

I totally understand:)

[@samialesandrini2093]

That's all happened to me too

[@FloralFashions]

i have social anxiety. it's so hard to live with. people say like 'just get over it' but they don't understand. the hardest moments for me at school are presentations, get to know each other games and lunch. i don't like lunch because it feels like when i enter the cafeteria everybody looks at me and judges me. I just didn't think this was a disorder and i thought it was a normal thing that most people had until i saw your video. I would like to have homeschooling, but i live in Europe and it costs so much here (it's only for the rich) and online schooling doesn't exist, so i'm forced to go to public school. It seems like every day is a struggle for me and it seems so easy for other people.

[@usagiwhitenight]

You sound exactly like me...

[@FloralFashions]

well possibly it is in some countries in Europe, but not in mine i guess, i already googled it. And believe me it'm trying to be succesful and i'm trying to make the best of it, but i just can't.

[@usagiwhitenight]

[@theramchepser7644]

Today was my first school day of the year i have a pretty weird taste of clothes I had all black clothes everything black my hair was also black and i have pretty long hair everyone was looking at me and everyone was talking about me girls were also playing truth or dare and the dare was to say hi to me. I made no friends and i am actualy gonna kill myself tommorow morning i just have had enough i have been thru a lot i have had people attack me with knifes once i went to hospitals because my hand was broken because i punched the shit out of a wall cuz i was fucking furious.

[@ZizYoubizHERE]

i hate school so much because of my social anxiety and i've been begging my mom for online schooling for years. i just really don't care about 'making memories' or anything. at least you have friends because i don't. i do think that i might regret it but i just dont care anymore.

[@DanigirlStarwars]

Me too. It feels like everyone at school, they think you're weird. They stare at you and whisper about you. It's so hard to even speak.

[@ZizYoubizHERE]

i know right.. :/

[@SuperMiley1994]

Absolutely NO

[@SuperMiley1994]

You need to fight your fears even though its so difficult because im doing it too. Or else your social anxiety could get worse if you always hide from people.

The worst thing is . I tell my parents and they just say “ your just shy” or “ your just scared of what people will think” but it’s more than that and I guess they will never understand

[@lunariesph761]

My social anxiety messed up my life so pretty badly. it comes to the point where I don't wanna go to school and just stay at my room because I'm afraid. I'm afraid of what people think of me. And then I dropped all my subjects on my 1st semester, so I was supposed to be sophomore in college now but I had to go back and take classes in freshman because of how many days my absences is and i failed my subjects because of skipping it so that bad my anxiety is. And sometimes people stares at me which makes the whole situation even worse. I hate it when people stares at me. And the stares are not just a typical ones, but it looked like a "why are you so weird" stare. It's like crushing me into bits. I don't have self-confidence at all. I hate school. I'm always alone. My friends are in different classes and I barely talk to them anymore. :(((

[@andreias5564]

i get bad grades because i'm too afraid of stand out or participate in class, and i always feel terrible alone in classes and have zero motivation for anything. i feel like i'm being excluded. School just drains me out emotionally, after the day is over I panic about what just happened and I can't help myself studying for any bullshit whatsover. I can hardly sleep because of the anxiety of getting up in the morning of the next day. Cause i dont see the point anymore. If i was home schooled i would take straight As at everything cause i wouldnt be afraid anymore. But i would miss alot experiences & people. what do you recommend?

[@sampaqq]

I feel the same way...

[@Lbpbest1]

stay in school and try to participate more. i also thought about being homeschooled but now i realize what a big mistake that would be.

[@rebeccathethiccsister4092]

Please do this. As a girl that suffers severely from social anxiety, this would mean a lot to her. I’d love to drop out and be homeschooled but I am scared I will miss out on anything in school like she said in the video. You are very kind to your daughter. I think she will highly appreciate it.

[@infinitehype]

I'm planning on trying to overcome my social anxiety by going into fast food restaurants and ordering my food myself. May it sound silly this will actually be a huge step for me😊 I haven't talked to my mom about it yet but I know she'll be on board with it because she hates seeing me like this.

has it gotten better?

[@user-yw3hi9io1i]

yh has it gotten better???

[@jillian6050]

just found this & I'm rly happy to hear/read that I'm not the only one in this situation. I dropped out of grade 10 and enrolled in online high school several months ago, and I'm starting to regret that decision for every reason you mentioned in the video. my social anxiety is literally so terrible, and my reputation at my previous high school is the girl who never talked, cried in class, always looked sad, and now randomly disappeared. I could never stand to go back there but hopefully I'm moving soon this year. I plan to give school another try where I can start fresh and no one knows me. I'll have to work hard but I'm at the point in this shit that I'm just tired of it. I want to help myself have a normal life and high school memories. inside I'm such a loving person and I want so badly to have friends and be friendly to everyone, but the social anxiety stops me from even trying.

[@jillsue1595]

literally im the same. i always look sad in class and people randomly ask me if im okay and i never ever talk and i literally fear going to school every day. and i know i am a really nice person down inside and i could make friends, but i just cant.

[@sierraandrade9316]

This is exactly how I feel... I dropped out of public high school also and did online school and I regret it still and it's been a year. I miss having friends and I want to go back to regular school but now I'm even more scared.

[@SuperSnooki14]

Jill J How are you doing now? still have social anxiety?

[@hhu4066]

idk if i have social anxiety but guys dont worry in middle school and stuff everyone is nervous just count to 10 if anyone looks at you

[@bunnyhillrock10]

You have to forget about reputation and not care that's part of the social anxiety caring about about what people think of you ... You know who you are and what you enjoy be positive its never to late try talking to people everyday and put your self in uncomftorable situations

[@MrAbcdefghijklm1nop]

[@LukaGames100]

+Alice Wofford omg same, i'm scared...

[@reegancalvert407]

The same thing happened to me, I would get anxiety attacks daily in school and everyday going back was like hell, it was affecting my grades and brought my depression even lower. So i dropped out of school for 2 years, to do homeschooling of course. It's a very valid option. Talk to your parents about it, tell them how you feel and mention the physiological damage it can cause having such severe social anxiety at a young age. Trust me, and you don't even have to do full out homeschooling, there are many places that offer outreach, you go in once a week to get help and pick up the work. Modules and textbooks are provided, you take them home and all the imformation is there, sometimes the best thing to do is take a break, be with yourself and away from the drama for a while, it does get lonely but sometimes that is best. Hope this helped :)

[@madi8561]

I have severe anxiety and this past year i was on homebound schooling. I thought i was ready to go back this year but it starts back soon and im just crying. I dont know why i thought i could do this. I had this ideal school in my head and ive finally snapped back to reality. I cant believe I thought i was ready for this. Im so fucking scared and i just want to curl up in a ball and die.

[@OoOoOBrookeOoOoO1]

My social anxiety got really bad this year (First year in high school, 9th grade). I've missed 12 days of school and first semester isn't even over yet. I asked my parents if I can be homeschooled and they said no (Currently my dad is still saying no but my mom is saying yes) because my mom knows how bad my social anxiety is but my dad thinks I'm lying or faking... So my mom and I are trying to convince my dad to let me get homeschooled.

[@juls9987]

Same here. Mine is so bad that I had 7 panic attacks the day before high school started and then two more when I got on the bus. I miss a lot of school as well. It sucks butt.

[@jaelarriaga1553]

Same here. My mom is trying to take me out after midterms

[@OoOoOBrookeOoOoO1]

Midterm exams are started today (For my school) but I ended up having a panic attack last night and didn't go today... I probably won't be going the rest of the week because I was suppose to be home schooled starting next week anyway and if I'm just going to keep having panic attacks this week, I can't go to school.

[@OoOoOBrookeOoOoO1]

***** I've finally gotten home schooled. I actually worry about my hair a lot too but it's because I'm self conscious about everything and my hair is really long. I still have social anxiety of course but I'm not as worried about going out and going to places anymore since I got home schooled.

[@loveballet101lover]

I'm also in 9th grade first year of high school and mine has also gotten like 4x worse im begging my mom to let me do online school and she keeps saying no and I tell her online school is for people like me and she says I'm just avoiding the problem but I rather avoid the problem then have 3-4 panic attacks in a week

[@user-pb9sm1ft5c]

im struggling with school and social anxiety its really hard im missing out everything im really good at school but social anxiety made me not as good as i am i cry every day, i don’t go every day i dont feel included and its hard im trying , i hope that all of y’all will feel better & thank you for this video i felt less alone 🫶🏼🫶🏼

[@MoonLight-bz3yd]

I know how it feels to stay with social anxiety but when you have depression +social anxiety is worse and I have both .when I try to concentrate in classes I always become depressed and I just stay paralyzed ,it's hard for me to think about anything about school and I had a bff but she was given rumours that ain't good friend so she never speaks to me ,but thank God I only got 6months to be done with high school and am looking forward to that Advise: just smile whenever you feel depressed or down and if you feel like crying just cry out and let anything that us holding you down come out and remember that without you the world wouldn't have been the same way ,you're unique and valued so love yourself first and others will follow you💕💯💯 😙😙😙😙mwaaah I hope that helped you ❤💯 bye

[@Jonjonson123]

Moon Light but in school when I feel like I'm about to cry it's normally in lessons and then I worry what people think....

[@MoonLight-bz3yd]

Mungooo don't worry just cry if you feel like because it will help you ,and try not to focus on what people will think of you because YOU matter not them remember that you're dealing with something most people can't deal with and that you're stronger than them . So cry out . I love you stay strong

School was always hell for me, I also missed a lot of school because of my anxiety, I ended up in a home school program also and still currently attend a home school program and it's helped a lot. Your video has helped me a lot, and made me feel not so alone. Social anxiety is the hardest thing I've had to deal with. One day at a time.

I've had social anxiety since 7th grade(12 years old) and now I'm in grade 10(15 years old) and in the beginning of the school year I wanted to change most of my classes because I would have to present a lot of projects and talk to the class but I didn't because I wanted to try it and I'm happy I didn't it's still hard going to those classes because I don't have friends in them but like you said mo I push myself and I just think of what I'm going to be doing later in the day and that no one really cares if I mess up or something they are more worried about things in their life to worry about the things I'm doing and telling myself that really helps because then I feel like they won't judge me as much

[@hinachan6298]

Has it gotten any better?

[@felicityglenn3881]

it was even harder for me when I had to go back to school because people would talk about me cuz I was never there and when I tried to explain why I couldn't and everyone though I was just skipping school for whatever

[@cutebabykid1116]

I live with social anxiety disorder and everyone was outgoing. And to realize they seemed they only where talking to me. Today I had to call my friend on the phone I couldn't help but cry.

[@inkdove759]

I have like really bad social anxiety and I think it’s from not being around people my age for so long. So when I was in 4th grade I more or less got kicked out of school because of my dad. At that time I was a really social kid until I started my homeschooling. Then I became super anxious about social situations and stuff. Fast forward to me going into 8th grade. I’ve decided to go back to school this year before high school starts so I can get a sense of what the whole switching classes and stuff is like. It’s here in about two weeks and I’m absolutely terrified. I have no clue what it’s going to actually be like while everyone has already gotten established for the past two years.

[@Eilonwy21]

i think its incredible that you can share your experience - that in itself takes incredible courage. I no longer go to high school, and I graduated from college two years ago (currently doing Master's). But when I was in hs, what you described was basically my experience. It was like every single second of every single day in school was sheer terror and torture. But one thing that I would really like to say is that during my teenage years, no one ever knew about social anxiety - there weren't numerous KZbin videos about it, online articles, BuzzFeed visuals and Tumblr posts. Social media and current research has changed all of that. Recently people have become so much more aware and accepting of mental illnesses and social anxiety. You guys who are in high school now should find relief and a sense of connection with each other now that you all have SO many amazing resources to see that you are NOT alone, you are not the only person on earth who feels this way - you are not some deformed creature who does not belong in the world. With this kind of awareness, you have the resources to find that it DOES have a name and you CAN do something about it. Trust me when I say I wish I had half the resources and possible forms of support systems you guys now have. Sometimes its still incredibly horrible for me now in grad school and at work. But know that it does get better, and one day you CAN live your life to its fullest potential - you just have to believe that you can and stride on, strive forwards no matter how difficult it gets.

I'm 15 I will be 16 in December 2020. I'm have crazy Social Anxiety. I tend to obsess about things so much I fell into depression. I mean I have depression once in a while. It just goes and comes. I get depressed because I feel too different and I hate myself for that. I really would love to have friends and socialize but I am so fucking anxious around people and I can't be myself. I just stay so quiet and insecure. I have so many insecurities. I hate myself sometimes because I hate how I am. And I the fact that nobody in my boarding school doesn't even know what my personality really is like. They know me kinda but not the real me the "quiet me."

When you said "you do something once, it will get easier the next time", it's so on point. You've shed such an amazing light to this subject. Thanks so much for sharing, Monica!

I actually haven’t been diagnosed with social anxiety, cause I’m too nervous and anxious to actually physically go to get checked out. I’m so sure I have social anxiety though. It’s so hard because I’m (best) friends with only two people really and I made those friends years ago when I wasn’t as socially anxious. They are quite, uhhh... popular i guess, so their friends sometimes flock over to us and they always notice that I have no other friends. My besties’ friends have said before to my besties that “she really needs to make more friends”, referring to me. They brought it up around me once, they were all laughing and I couldn’t say anything to explain to them. I just had to laugh awkwardly with them, when in reality, I could have cried buckets. My besties later asked me if I was okay and all I could do was say that I was fine 🤷‍♀️ People say that they think I’m rude and proud, so they don’t want to become my friend. I can’t just explain to any random person why I don’t talk, so I have no choice but to let them believe that I am a bad person. It’s hard :(

Hey girl, I loved both of your videos, they had me in tears from start to finish. I'm from canada too! :) unfortunately not not the beautiful bc though... :( I'm 21 years old and I only just started learning about social anxiety. I have lived this way for as long as I can remember, but I didn't even know what was happening. I couldn't say how I felt, I couldn't even put it together in my own head. I always just assumed I was depressed/crazy/too shy and needed medication. (because that's what my mom kept telling me as a child..) I grew up in foster care and didn't stay in one place for more than a year from the ages of 7-16. I was always afraid of therapy, because when I lived in places like that therapy was mandatory, so I often got in trouble at home for the things I said in therapy sessions. I grew up so confused, so lost and alone. In your first video you explained so clearly the thoughts in my head that I just couldn't seem to understand back then, and why I couldn't just say what I was thinking, and couldn't even put it together in my head enough to just write it down in a diary. But since watching this video you've basically opened up the world to me, its like my heart and soul are free, and I know now that I was never alone, I was just too afraid to open up. I am so happy to have come across this video, and so happy to have "met" you. You've helped me see that I don't have to be afraid, and that nobody can stop me from finishing high school, even though I missed most of it (I also went to an outreach school called fresh start) and now I would do anything to be able to go back.

[@marcyprice8030]

Eventhough I don't suffer social anxiety, I really really understand you and this is really inspriational

[@felicityglenn3881]

when I had social anxiety I would barely go to school and I failed all my classes too it was really hard for me and I felt like no one understood ....when I watched this video it made me feel like I wasn't alone anymore

[@johannesglunz6857]

Felicity Glenn I feel alone too and it kills me from inside, horrible

[@CanelaHelloKitty]

I haven't been diagnosed with SA but I'm 100% sure i do have it. Having SA IN SCHOOL IS THE WORST. i would NEVER go the the bathroom ( I've been to the bathroom like 10 times my entire highschool career) because i felt uncomfortable asking the teacher, and if i did i would quickly walk out the class. When i would get back i had a hard time going back into the class because i know people would stare at me so i would just wait out the door until i had enough courage to go back in. I hated reading out loud aswell. I would shake and my face turns red and hot af, i get embarrassed thinking people can see how scared i look. This isn't everything but yeah.

[@jessiewrites4753]

This video is from a few years ago but I just had to say, you are very insightful! I'm in college and have anxiety and your words in this video helped me!

[@KatieSmiley29]

Thank you for sharing this. I'm currently in university and social anxiety has taken over my life for the past two years. It does definitely make actually attending difficult and means most of the time I'm isolated and often stay home. But I've recently started seeing a counsellor and I'm hoping that I will be able to work on the anxiety and get better. Like you said sitting in bed on tumblr is going to make you miss out on memorable moments, I regret all social gatherings that I've missed and all the time that I've wasted sleeping and spending the day just on the Internet not doing much over the past two years.

[@jamiebaxter8721]

Man.. I watched that "living with social anxiety" video, and I related to everything you said. the simplest things are so hard for me. like, saying hi to an old friend, or giving a hug to a grandparent. I get so stressed whenever I have to go in public. I didn't know why. I didn't know that there was a word for it. then I watched your video, and I now know, I have social anxiety. I watched more vids, and I did more research and I can now say that I know that I am not alone. I am not messed up. I wish I could send that video to people to show them what I am going through. but people just don't understand. thanks so much for this.

[@beebaasmr7753]

You're incredibly brave for posting these videos. I also have social anxiety and it's super bad at times. I actually just posted a video telling a story about how I was so nervous to give a presentation that I passed out. I told the story really lightheartedly and as if I wasn't that bothered by it, but what happened during that presentation has haunted me ever since it happened. I'm so afraid of being judged negatively in presentations that I get extreme anxiety about presentations weeks before I even have to present. And it's not just presentations, it's pretty much any normal, everyday social interaction that can give me anxiety.

[@CriminalFinds.]

This was so brave

[@cjadetown7432]

You could get your parents to go in and explain the college about your anxiety and why you dropped out, or if you got a doctor to write a note as well?x

[@hana-cl7or]

you are so inspirational Mo. I love you so so much please stay strong

[@joziejoziejozie9932]

I feel you so much, even though i lve never stopped going to public school it's always been hard on me ever since preschool. I always felt like I just didn't belong and that I can never make progress. My social anxiety lead to a learning disability I think but I've struggled so much but now that I'm growing I've noticed that I've improved a lot and I can finally be more social even though I still get uncomfortable at school because of the amount of people that I have to be close to everyday and lunch time was always the worst for me but the more I try and grow the easier it gets. I barely get panic attacks at school but when I do I can't help but cry and it sucks a lot. For anyone dealing with this or something similar I believe that you can get through it because no one is inadequate. You are all capable of succeeding. Good luck to you all!

[@minnie310]

By the end of the day I feel like someone poured paint all over me, and it stayed there until it got crusty and dry.

[@alyssasutherland5163]

This really helps. Not many people understand what it's like so thank you

[@KaitlynArgyle]

I have terrible social anxiety and I am starting my 14th school tomorrow (going into the 9th grade. I'm really nervous but I think watching videos like these makes me feel a lot better, thanks :)

[@jaslavie]

Hey guys. I have not been diagnosed yet, but I am seriously 95% sure I have society anxiety disorder, if not, any degree of social anxiety above normal. I’ve been like this since 4th grade I believe, perhaps earlier. I have a very difficult time making friends and getting the conversation started. Today, I had my first meeting with a club in which I completely froze, my muscled tensed, I was breathing incredibly hard, and I kept focusing on the way I was standing and all these thoughts running through my head. It’s a tiny bit better than before, but I have a lot more to share about why I’m 95% sure I have social anxiety. I can’t put it all down here, but I basically sat in the library the entire lunchtime and recess time from 6th grade til beginning of 8th. I had no friends in PE class and I dreaded it every single day of my existence. I used to go back home and beat myself up for how stupid and questioning why I had to be born this shy. A the beginning of 8th grade, I spent over a week walking by myself on the track with no one else and the teacher asked a group of people to talk to me which was so embarrassing that I went home balling my eyes out. People used to ask me why I always had a bitch face, which I changed now, but it hurt and I still remember it. Even as early as 5th grade, (this is general because things like this happened throughout the year) I was pretty confident and outgoing before that in 3rd and 4th grade, but I guess it went downhill from there. I basically was so anxious about speaking to people and so scared to step up and talk to people for some ambiguous fear. I have so much more to talk about, but that’s my story. This year, I magically got accepted in ASB at my school. I know it’s not a big deal to you, but it is to me. I just want you guys to hear my story. If any one wants to chat, please do ask. I have a lot more to talk about

[@user-fb3oo3ys1i]

Your video "living with social anxiety" was my answer on what i was "wrong " with me. Thank u ,that you make these videos ,they are so helpful💜(sorry for the bad english)

[@margievitale6521]

Thank you Monica , this made me cry feel so helpless for my Daughter . I sent her your video. Thank u

[@MsMaddie5683]

Watching this and your previous video on social anxiety is bringing me to make a video on anxiety and social anxiety. Hopefully, I will have the guts to actually post it later. I wanted to start my own channel but my anxiety and social anxiety are keeping me from it. Thank you so much Mo

[@GuttsyBoyVideo]

I relate to this so much. I'm 17 now and have been dealing with social anxiety since grade 9. I got through the first semester in grade 10 but missed so much school because of anxiety that I got kicked out. I've tried to go back twice and I'm still struggling with this but your video gives me so much hope. Thank you :) btw I'm from Alberta

[@NeverHADaNes]

Great video. Thanks for sharing your anxiety story. Good to see someone talking about anxiety at school. 😎😎😎

[@KirstenFreeze]

oh wow. This is actually really helpful. I missed a lot of school due to anxiety, and now I'm catching up in an alternate for grade 11 but I'm really planning on going back to mainstream for grade 12 ☺️

[@morganemonroyparedes3919]

Maybe I’m weird but I only feel anxiety in school and with people I see in school. Other than that I am a very extroverted person outside of school, I am a different person ..

[@jessb5809]

Don't worry, your not weird or alone in that. In clubs or other social events I'm so energetic and happy. I do feel a bit shy in them but not half as bad as school. I can't even go into the cafe without someone coming with me to distract me from "everyone looking at me, judging me." I feel like if I mess up they will remember it forever and always tease me abt it :c

[@Katinnity]

I had a panic attack today. In drama, our group was forced to do things cause I was too scared to join in and I had to do things that I wasn't comfortable doing in front of people. I froze and stopped breathing. Tears just rolled down my face and I couldn't hear anything. It was horrible.

[@erikam4351]

I've struggled with social anxiety my entire life. I never got proper help and it eventually became so severe it led to me dissociating entirely to try and cope with the stress. I felt so embarrassed and ashamed. I felt like something was wrong with me and it was destroying my self esteem. It's tough and you guys are strong for dealing with this everyday.

[@FightfortruthJesusChrist]

Heyy how u doing now?

[@imbazed22]

i find it really impressing how u can present urself, im struggling with it so much, talking to a camera would be so awkward guess u will keep on doing better, all the best babe :D

[@officialkaryssa]

I just want to say this is really good. But if someone is self motivated they should try homeschool if they really want to. I do online school and I know that if I would have stayed at school I would always be thinking about what I could be doing if I went to online school all day. And also I feel a lot less anxious. If you can, I would also recommend counseling because it helps if you don't have anyone to talk to. I just wanted to say that everyone is different, and what's best for someone might make anxiety worse for another. So do what you think will really help you!

[@spaghett0id]

You're so pretty! Happy you're doing better

This video was so helpful, I completely understand what you are going through because I have severe social anxiety and I was in public school 4th-the middle of 8th grade and I had to be put in an online school because it was too much for me

[@whodis6318]

Tbh it feels like I'm the only one with social anxiety in my school, but after this video and reading the comments, I don't feel so alone and am a little relieved other people understand

[@thebiscuitonyourshelfs3841]

I get so nervous for presenting things or having to be in front of people....I feel like crying when I make a simple mistake. People tell me it's normal, that all teenagers feel like that......

[@ktywhre4298]

Sooo many people at my school literally HATE me just because im quite and they think its because im antisocial and stuck up. They dont even consider that i want to talk to ppl but I feel nervous and im scared ill be judged for what i say and bullied for it. Im also anorexic and i used to be a lot chubbier before and people who bullied me paid attention to what i ordered at lunch and when they saw me only having an apple every lunch they said i was trying to lose weight for attention. Omg i hate how some people are soooo arogant. Thankyou for this video it rlly helped me ❤

[@immirees7870]

My anxiety was a lot better today in non school uniform :) I think it gives me more confidence, and the classes which I feel anxious and uncomfortable in (you know those seats where you feel like everyone's looking at you and your by one of those confident boys who keep talking to you?) I asked if I could move seats seeing as i can't move classes and it makes me a lot more confident💗 Thankyou so much for motivating me to do that💜

What’s weird that I can do class presentations fine as long as I laugh the whole time but when it comes to someone talking to me it actually can bring me into tears it’s absolutely terrifying for me.

Your very brave stay strong girl. I myself have it and have for 10 years.

[@lilawitt7178]

This might seem weird but my social anxiety makes me rly scared of talking to teachers and everyone else so I can’t explain my anxiety too them :/

[@Angel-if7bw]

This was a long time ago lol but I wanna say something. You should never regret missing your years in school if it meant you were gonna hurt your mental state. That was the best you could have done back then, because look where you are now. There was no other way it could have gone, if you were miserable and uncomfortable for however short of time you were there, you were probably gonna feel like that for the rest of your time in high school. So do not hate yourself. You didn't miss anything. You just got something else and there's no way that you didn't learn anything useful ❤️

[@charlieshurey154]

these videos really help me thank you so much :)

[@lonedreamer1627]

This really helped me, thank you :)

[@JustJackieeeeee]

I never really felt my anxiety when I was in school because I was really comfortable with everybody since we had all gone to school since we were kids. Once in a while if I didn't have a friend in a class, if I felt alone, I would feel sick especially with speeches or auditions for a solo, then I wouldn't do my best. It held me back so much and I regret not asking people to hang out or not going to parties because I wouldn't know many people. I don't regret a lot of high school because I did do a lot of things and I was relatively happy. I graduated a year and a half ago, and I was going to go to a local community college because I don't have the money to go to where I want. But whenever I was going to register I just felt so sick, I felt like a failure because I wasn't going where I wanted to go and I couldn't do it. I didn't want people to know I was going there and I just felt like poop. So I was going to find a job and save so I could go where I wanted. But my anxiety makes interviews feel like hell. I know community college is better then nothing but I honestly just can't get over the depression or anxiety and while I try to ignore it, to stop it, I'm getting better slowly but it's so annoying to have to live like this. Thank you for your video. It helps seening other people's story. My tumblr is JackieGutierrez007 or blindeyesseemoreblog. What's the song in the end of the video?

[@sophia_thxx5017]

My social anxiety in school: Example--> My friends and i habe to present a french text for the next day. 1. I practise the text at home and i can do it to 100% 2.
