For me acceptance is the best I can hope for. -while knowing, for me personally, the better I take care of myself and kinder I treat myself the more I will feel/think/behave in a 'cured' manner. Also, for me to know no person is ever exempt from the struggle of life...avoidance and anxiety just happens to be one of my struggles. It does help me a lot when I force myself to look around and be grateful for all the struggles that I don't have.

Also, if I were to cure anxiety I would still be introverted....and I'm completely ok with that. Right now for me, my biggest problem is other peoples' unwillingness to accept me as I am where I am.
