Social anxiety isn’t “omg I hate everyone i wish I was watching Netflix in my room” it’s “I want desperately to be able to hang out with people but I hate the feeling of panic and fear I get around them so I don’t or can’t hang out with them, so I end up just staying home alone.

@EverythingOOC Crazy how people would send death threats to “defend” someone that will never know of their existence 💀💀

Anxiety is when you go out in public & have to rethink what to say

Social anxiety isn’t just “hating talking to people”. It’s being scared of making phone calls, making appointments. Walking on the sidewalk because you feel like everyone is judging you. You have this unexplainable fear of going out in public. That you can’t explain or understand

Anxiety Kills you. You can’t sleep. You can barely eat. You’re terrified to get out of bed in the morning. You can’t handle social situations. You’re scared to do anything because of the fear of making mistakes. No one knows how miserable you are on the inside, and it sucks.

What people think causes Depression: • Weakness • Laziness What ACTUALLY causes Depression: • Trauma • Bullying • Low self esteem • Abuse Depression is a very complicated illness. You can’t just “snap out of it”. Depression is way more than being just sad and lazy.

Mental illness can be invisible: • You can have anxiety BUT still sound confident • You can have depression BUT still smile and make jokes • You can be suicidal BUT still go out in public and appear fine Please always check on your loved ones. You never know who’s suffering.

Having anxiety and depression is like being scared and tired at the same time. It’s the fear of failure, but no urge to be productive. It’s wanting friends, but hate socializing. It’s wanting to be alone, but not to wanting to be lonely. It’s feeling everything at once.

What depression is REALLY like: • No motivation • No energy • Laying bed for hours because you’re too tired to move • Knowing you’re not alone but still feeling alone • Considering suicide whenever any problem arises • Crying all the time • No sleep/too much sleep

Having anxiety is the most silently painful experience. It makes no sense and you sit there alone and suffer for an unknown reason. You can’t explain it. You can’t stop it. It is horrible.

I think the problem with depression is people expect you to have logical reasons behind your sadness like losing someone, and don’t understand when your depression is simply a general consistent struggle in trying to cope with being alive.

Social anxiety is terrible man like one second everything is fine and the other second. You’re in panic and think you’re embarrassing yourself doing “simple things” such as waiting next in line, ordering food, and even walking. You always feel like everyone’s attention is on you.

I wish people would STOP saying social anxiety is an excuse because it’s not. Would you like to constantly be worried about what others think about you. Or being scared of ordering food or making phone calls. And thinking everyone hates you. Social anxiety is not a fucking joke.

Social anxiety: • You can’t handle eye contact • You can’t eat in front of people • You can’t ask for help • You always prepare what you say • You hate when you bump into people you know • You feel embarrassed all the time • You avoid people all the time
