Hi everyone.
I have suffered from terrible social and performance anxiety for my entire life. I have managed to mostly work past my social anxiety, though I still don't really enjoy having to interacting with people I don't know well. My performance anxiety is bad enough that it frequently makes competitive games unenjoyable. I have been trying to practice mindful detachment in these circumstances but I definitely have a ways to go. It can be embarrassing at times, I try and remind myself that everyone has issues that they are dealing with.
