fuggstop Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 I wanna start a thing where people post about conquering their fears, attempting things theyd never dared before, going out of your comfort zone. And post successes and failures. This is kind of something i have to do everyday because i battle high anxiety. Like just now a little girl in a group of teenagers kicked a cake while standing in line and then put it back on the rack. I made her hand it to the cashier so they wouldn't sell it lol im so meek/shy usually id be too afraid to talk to someone's kid like that. So it can be little things or big things.

Bouvre Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Traveling to AWP tomorrow in an effort to pitch my manuscript/meet some of my favorite writers/catch up with peers and people who have published my work. Did this in 2017, in DC, but this time I have no affiliation, and am in a city I barely know 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it's a literary conference with a whole lot going on (including karaoke nights) I'm probably going to make a separate thread <3 but I will keep this one up to date with nosedives 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vamped Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I ordered soup today from the drive thru at Panera Bread and only had to repeat myself 3 times. I think 3 times is how long it took the guy at the window to figure out Id lost my voice and wasnt actually cookie monster choking on a dick. I had so much anxiety about how I sound, Ive been eating cough drops and drinking tea all day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnight Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I grabbed a roach outside and squashed it in my hand, because I had nothing else to get it with and couldn't be bothered going to get something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
