TACKLING my SOCIAL ANXIETY Vlog. Facing my fears; social situations, decision making and failure

This video follows me whilst I try to combat my Social and generalised Anxiety through systematic desensitisation, challenging myself to do things that push me out of my comfort zone a little at a time. My Anxiety has severely affected me in the past and due to the lockdown, I have had no practice/exposure in social situations for months and that has caused the anxiety to become stronger again.

My name is Elinor, I am a 21-year-old sociology student who has been living with ME/CFS for 5 years. This video does not necessarily reflect everyone's experience and illness story with ME/CFS and Anxiety because we are all different and have different experiences. This is because ME/CFS, Anxiety and other mental and physical health conditions can be both more severe and more mild than I have experienced and therefore each person’s story will be different!

Hi, I already apologize for my bad English. 😅
I have social anxiety too and seeing you face your fears has inspired me.
You were really good!
I am in a period of my life, where I have no friends, so going out is even more complicated.
I am trying to be more independent and deal with my social anxiety alone.
I go to walk in the park, I do the shopping alone. It is always so stressful.
A month ago I was thinking of trying to take a trip alone but then I felt It was too difficult, who knows when I'll be ready.
I revised myself a lot in your feelings
We have to make it better by committing ourselves every day!
I would Also like to open a channel on YouTube also because here in Italy few speak of social anxiety.
Keep making videos, they are very useful. 🌈
