If you saw my social anxiety post a few posts ago, here’s my update! I’ve been praying and meditating away my social anxiety, and guess what…. IT WORKED!!! My newly sober friend from back home visited all last weekend and we stayed up until 3am talking both nights… after that I went out to dinner with 5 of my fellowship peers and had a great time. And I have plans for this weekend. 
my mind is blown!!! In such a short amount of time.. so much has changed

It’s the worst, because connecting with people and building relationships are so important
Social anxiety is diabolical. I’ve been there.. so desperately desiring interpersonal connection but being unable break through the anxiety. This recovery is the first time I’ve really ever experienced it I wouldn’t wish it upon anyone.
It took over 8 months for me, and I knew it wouldn’t be like that forever, but I did not think it would change that fast. I just kept hanging on, waiting and doing the work.. I’m honestly so blown away that it’s going away. That was the root of my drinking (and I’m sure a lot of past trauma gave me the anxiety) and I was like f*ck it, I’m gonna face this thing head on no matter how long it takes. All I wanted was for the social anxiety to go away. Sobriety was the first step. I’m praying for you dude!!! Gonna add Scott Rivers in my prayers tonight 
Aww thanks Lauren. I’ll put you in my prayers too
