I have something called social anxiety. I get sooo nervous when I'm around people.... Recess was the worst time of the day for me because kids like MARLEY would suddenly sneak up behind me. "Haha, Relax weirdo. What are you doing standing like a lil creep behind the wall? Why don't you just get out there and make friends?" "Maybe because I don't want friends, and what are you hiding in your other hand?" "This! Haha" This is the reason I don't have friends-Hi, I am Aarya and I am from Tennessee. I loved being home with my parents and while we were eating dinner that night, I came up with a solution to solve my anxiety problem. "Mom, since you are taking a break from work- maybe you can homeschool me?" "Aarya, I'm taking this break so I can focus on my novel. Your therapist said, the only way you can overcome your fears is by being around people." "I have something better in mind, that might just help. Summer school." "What? That only means more new faces. I really don't see how summer camp is going change anything." Visit https://www.storytimeanimated.com/members to enjoy ad free listening. Hosted on Acast.
