Wouldnt push yourself too hard, just do what you feel comfortable with for a while and then slowly attempt things that stress you. Thats what i found works. Its good you feel you're doing better now. Even little successes are a victory with anxiety x

Hi glitterangel03, I'm glad you are doing better short of the social anxiety getting bad. That's understandable but treatable. When you get a chance, I'd like you to try and watch and listen to a YouTube video that may help you a lot.

Take it a bit @ a time, glitterangel03. I haven't been out on my own for a long time but that's down to epilepsy & fear of having a seizure alone whilst folk just waltz on by!
