i’ve never officially been diagnosed with anxiety. i’ve never talked to someone because, although it would be nice to actually tell someone how i’m feeling, i’m scared that they’ll judge me even tho it’s their job to listen.

anyways, i think that i have social anxiety because in most situations when people approach me i tend to start shaking, especially with my hands and a constant bouncing of my leg. i try to live by a “just fake it until it’s real” motto, but even that’s kinda tough. the only time i really approach people is when i try not to think about it and even then i get shaky.

my mom also walked in on me having an anxiety attack, which i’ve had many times but never in front of people because it’s kinda embarrassing and now i’m afraid that if i told someone they wouldn’t believe me.

but, when my mom saw me, she basically asked me why i was shaking and, maybe this is me overreacting, but it seemed to be in a rude and judgmental tone.

sorry this is so long, but i’d love to hear everyone’s opinion on what i should do. and also if you think i have anxiety or if i’m just dramatic.
