Hi,
I've been suffering from anxiety for awhile now, social anxiety being a part of that, I've been through a good few years of hell, but even though the anxiety is getting better, it seems to have left me with crippling depression, lonliness & feeling like I'm no longer the happy, bright, friendly, funny person I once was... :(
Through the anxiety, I've distanced myself from most of my friends & I just feel like I want to get there, because if I don't, it'll drive me mad!
So I've signed up for an improv class, I love comedy & have been wanting to do it for ages, but it starts saturday & the worry is making me ill. I really want to do it, but the anxiety is telling me 'No, I you can't do, you won't be able to, you'll look stupid & it'll be a disaster'
I just don't know what to do, part of me thinks I'm rushing in too fast but part of me thinks that's exactly what I should be doing.
I really could do with some help guys...any advice would be so appreciated right now. Thanks. :bighug1:
