I hadn’t have the best interaction with people and I have made friends that I felt wasn’t great for me as well as gotten out an controlling relationship a year ago. It has eaten up my self-esteem where I am scared to actually talk to anyone in real life as I worried similar thing would happen.

I know I need to push myself out there which is easier said than done. One thing I tried to do is if I am in a decent mood, I got to one the social group which is on like every month as well as join in to my friend’s karaoke night and sing terribly. Sadly, I’m not Mariah Carey… 😔

So I have taken slow steps up which is better than taking none I guess but I got long way till I feel confident in myself where I stop worrying about everything as it really does held me back in general.

    Ideas:

    • find a tabletop gaming group to join
    • find ppl who exercise like you do (I started a cycling group, e.g.)
    • join a book club (if you read)
    • join a service org which does good works

    Have fun!
