Okay so no one else seems to get me. My husband understands and accepts me but how do you tell someone you cant come because you LITERALLY feel like you're going to vomit and are all shakey. Ive always had anxiety. I missed out on so much in highschool. I remember just walking into the lunchroom at school nearly passing out because i felt that everyone was staring at me. I never went to dances. I even sometimes would choose to stay at home rather than go hangout with a group of friends. Its not a self conscious thing. Ive always been confortable in my own skin. sometimes i feel bad because i never know how to tell people why im not going and i dont want to seem like a flake. I just wish more people where aware of anxiety.
