Keeping on struggling with therapy. Went to group therapy, had an exam, tired, awkward, don't know what is going on home

I went to an irl group therapy today and it was so awkward. The levels of cringe were cosmic 😅. The moment the therapist tells me to look ppl at the eyes, i lose desire to even look at them. And worse it's expensive. And i wasn't bringing enough and got even more awkward. I expected it to be less. I overthinked that because i missed thursday normal therapy, went now, spent money, got anxious, blame myself it's because of thursday, got awkward to ppl there, ppl i told, my therapist and probably now my therapist thinks i'm too socially anxious and will want to work on it instead on my main anxiety. I'm not so bad, when i was volunteering i was giving presentations. Just in a bad period rn. On the other hand it's new experience and probably i'm just anxious and it's not such a casastrophe.

Mom called me. (Yeah, i know, i make it the time of doom). And said sis is home. I'm confused. What is going on there? I can't ask directly in order not to trigger others n myself but i'm worried. Firstable i didn't want sis at dad's house, then i got okay with it because dad n sis need to spend time with each other and i'm so sad, and now she probably didn't go. I spent so much time worrying she will go there, made peace with it and now she probably isn't there. What if she's alone, dad's offended she's not with him, and she's making parties or something at home?

I'm wondering, what do you do all day, every day, to stay busy and productive to help keep your mind in a much healthier place? It's important to stay busy doing and accomplishing things.👍

Studying mostly, today i planted flowers. Also trying to write. When my exams are over, i think i might work as psych appreciantice in the university appreciantice program. Thinking about it and whether i will be able to. I know they say keep busy so no time for anxiety but activities overwhelm me plus i don't want to fail them. I'm scared someone will rely on me to do work or whatever and i will get anxiety and fail it
