I had a burlesque performance last night, I have been a preformer for near on two years now.

for the first time even with all the social anxiety I feel when on stage I felt so self confident in myself and the fact I had come up with a unique, creative routine all by myself.

I ran into people at the show that tried to drag my self esteem down by creating drama but I calmly and quietly just told them in my head to
"f off"

I am amazed and proud that I have gotten to this point, I can handle myself and my mental disorders and their symptoms and lead the life that I truly wish to.
