    Social Anxiety is not just the typical quiet and shy individual who feels ‘out of place’. You could be the ‘life of the party’ and experience spurts of high anxiety. You could be in a conversation but half of you is ready to cry. You could be smiling but inside you feel exhausted because you are beyond overstimulated. I have always struggled with being around people I do not know. I am scared to be misunderstood, not liked, and frankly - I am scared of humans. Maybe that is from trauma o...

    I Went To Hawaii

    ** I know Hawaii is NOT an international flight - it just FELT like one **I went to Hawaii with my mom for 11 days and I had THE BEST time.

Say YES to more things, you will thank yourself later.Link to ...

    They're Not The One | Anxious vs. Avoidant Attachment

    Wow, it has been a MINUTE. I have been trying to process my emotions in a healthier way. I am so used to just pouring my soul that I lost sight of my own private moments to myself. Sometimes we have to hold things sacredly, against our chests, and just be. I have spent this time getting to the root causes as to why I keep making the same decisions, mistakes... realizing that I have a part in my growth and in my downfall. I hope whoever is listening to this that you eventually get to a place o...

    This is for all the girls who were terribly disappointed on Valentine’s Day - just know you’re worth it and he’s a god damn LOSER.I just officially ended things on Valentine's Day with the guy I was dating. I THOUGHT I would be worthy of receiving a rose petal at the very least but all I got was a shrug and a whole lot of nothing.
