Social anxiety is anxiety (emotional discomfort, fear, apprehension, or worry) about social situations, interactions with others, and being evaluated or scrutinized by other people.
Yeah, that sums me up pretty well. I remember when I was little, I wasn't shy at all. I would talk to anyone, speak my mind if I disagreed, and just talk all the time. I think I became shy around 4th grade, because that's when I started to get bullied. I started to become bigger then my other classmates and boy did they notice. I guess they felt like I needed to know that I was fat, so they started calling me that EVERYDAY. Now I'm the type of person who does not let things go, if a person ever made fun of me, I will NEVER forgive them. That's just how I am. What was I talking about? Oh, yeah, the reason I am shy. If I say something stupid, people will laugh at me, that's why I don't talk. If I say something all people will think is "Oh look at the fat girl trying to act all smart!" and it goes back to 4th grade again and people laughing at me. I ALWAYS think people are talking about my weight, that's the first thing that goes through my head when I walk into a room. Sometimes I wonder, if I was skinny would I be a different person. I think I would be.
I don't want to be shy, but here I am.
