Ever since my videos on Youtube and TikTok started getting popular, people would recognize me out in the wild and then realize that I am SO AWKWARD in person.

I LOVE meeting people... but I never know what to say and I always feel like I've disappointed them afterwards.

So, a few months ago... I printed up cards that I could give to people I meet that has an apology inside.

If you happen to see me, please say hi.

But be patient with me... I'm doing my best to "people" .

Sending Big Hugs from the Hobbit Hole. ♥♥♥

Scott

Nah I’m fine I’m just internally cringing about that slightly weird thing I said ten years ago that nobody remembers but is a core memory for me now.

A personal note on anxiety based on my own experiences as someone who lived with crippling anxiety for years..and is pretty much anxiety free at this point..

The bodily signals are not to be ignored. This is your body talking to you, it's letting you know very loudly that 'hey, something is very fucking off, listen to me will you??' and it might be quite literally your whole life. The course you decided to study, the city you decided to live in, the friends you're hanging around with, the foods you are eating, the content you are consuming, the lifestyle you have chosen, the apartment you are living in. Ignoring these screaming signs from your body, does not help. In my experience the more I ignored the more extreme my anxiety got, until i was in panic attack territory.

I had to learn to understand why I was anxious. And without a therapist this can sometimes be quite difficult. A few things I learnt..

1] My social anxiety stemmed from pretending to be comfortable, loud and overly confident when I was in-fact out of my comfort zone. I learnt I am naturally an introverted, especially at work. My social anxiety disappeared when I learnt to lean back in a crowd group setting without fake smiling and performing.

2] Anxiety when dating became a signal that I had inner work to do. Not that I should just ignore it, or have a shot of tequila to settle the nerves. I used to date men I believed where out of my league, because my confidence was in the gutter. My anxiety led me to building my confidence.

3] Anxious about spending time with family (I learnt this recently) this is a sign that you do not want to be around your family so put a boundary in place. Stop people pleasing. I recently cancelled a family trip to visit me for one week because I knew in my heart it was too long. You have less anxiety when you learn to say no.

4] Anxious friends. This one was huge. When you're dealing with your own battles, and your friends are adding to your anxiety, create space. I'm not suggesting cutting your friends off completely but a little distance from the friends that are causing you anxiety can go along way. One of my best friends would cause me severe anxiety and similarly to the point above I lacked boundaries, and the anxiety was my body signalling this to me.

5] Foods that cause anxious symptoms. For me this was coffee. Despite drinking it for years. My adrenaline was peak as I sipped through my morning oat latte. It took me a very long time to remove this from my life.

I also found the more I was anxious the more anxious life got, it was like a never ending pit of anxiety. Work, relationships, social life, foods, family. Everything was extremely anxious. But little by little I started to clear the things causing the dis-harmony in my life. And slowly but surely the anxiety fell away. I would often wonder if this horrible feeling in the pit of my stomach would be with me forever and the answer is no. It will not, it does not. There is hope.

So if you have anxiety, please listen to your body. It's not against you, it's just letting you know in its own language that something is off and once you start doing the work to remove the mis-alignments from your life. You can live in a space where you're free from those chest clenching, throat throttling, gut grabbing feelings.

Day 86 of Writing Something Everyday

(365 Day Challenge)

How do I talk to people?

I fumble, words twisting on my tongue like

vocal acrobatics.

The words I have to give- they're right there.

Yet nowhere at the same time,

How do you translate your heart into English?

What defines exactly how I feel?

I come up with nothing.

So I stay silent...

The acrobats dance on my tongue a while longer until they dive off the tip of it.

The other acrobats slide down my cheek to catch their friends gracefully gliding from swing to swing.

It's all just a drop in the bucket I have at my feet.

~Jenni

people online love saying things like, unpopular opinion but introverts actually suck. Or, if you're quiet you need to work on that no one likes people who don't interact with them.

And it's like??? Duh? This is not actually unpopular at all lmao like yeah people hate introverts and quiet people and people with lackluster presence. At no point in time has their been like introvert supremacy or whatever.

#this is another too online thing #bc yeah introverts are overrepresented online #but the mainstay opinion is no one likes introverts that not new #introvert #szpd #social skills #social anxiety #social awkwardness #schizoid #avpd

Tamaki with his even shyer wifey??

Another day.. hero work. I'm grateful for my ability to save others... but... the people... so many... people... *Tamaki pulls his hood over his face a bit more and is grateful for the protective fabric as he tries to drown out the noise of the crowd he's surrounded by as he hurries home to the love of his life.

Stopping by the grocery store to grab the weekly deals brochure and swiftly leaving without talking to anyone he continues on his way home to his love. He notices that his wifes favorite treat stand has a new flavor and his eyes light up before he realizes his emotions are exposed for the world to see and a deep blush spreads across his cheeks as he pulls the hood to cover his face completely and goes to order two for his sweetheart. One of her favorite flavor and one with the new one, as he overthinks how it may not taste good for her so he wants to make sure she enjoys what he brings home. He walks past a flower shop and the owner rushes out to give him a bouquet of flowers. "For your sweetheart! I'll never forget how you saved my grandchild last year! Thank you again! Free flowers for life!<3" The old lady sang her gratitude to him so loud it drew the attention of passerbys and a small crowd started gathering around him. His lungs started to constrict and the tightness in his chest started to cause him to hyperventilate and he used his octopus arms to get out of the crowd, waving at them with a nervous smile as they cheered at the little show he put on as he cried inside at their attention.

Walking up to his front door he fumbles around for his keys and realizes he left them at work. Ringing the doorbell a small hole opens up and a familiar and gorgeous y/ec eye pops up and gazes shyly outside. "Babe~" she almost whispers demurely. "Why arent you unlocking the door? why did you ring the bell?" "I-I'm sorry love... I forgot my keys." Tamaki apologizes to you. "Oh- I-I'm sorry babe... let me get the door." After several seconds and several loud clanks as you dig around for your copy of the keys, abandoned in a random drawer since you never go out, you manage to unlock the door and let him in. Peeking nervously over his shoulder to make sure there arent any scary humans nearby. After carefully closing and locking the door behind him, Tamaki presents you with the treats and flowers and your face lights up. Burying your face in the fragrant flowers you feel safe with your hubby, the flowers and treats.... and the locked door. <3
