So the past few months, I have been fighting off anxiety. 

I find it hard to converse with people irl and when I hear someone laughing behind me, I imagine it's me they're laughing at. 

I had to count my steps whenever I walk outside just so I can get distracted from my thoughts or so I can't be conscious of how I walk. 

It's been very hard but finally these past few days...

I can frolic freely in public and have become more confident. Kudos!
