I’m really trying to refocus on what brings me to therapy. Yes I’m still working on the driving phobia but that is a long slog. So that continues.

One thing I’m working on and always seem to be working on is my social anxiety and trying to make friends and build relationships. I think I’m more phobic than I realized. T is away this weekend which gave me the chance to try something social on my own. I signed up for a three hour class/workshop but at the last moment I chickened out. But recently I bought tickets to an event in sept and invited two coworkers. I bought the tickets in advance to force myself to go.
It will be expensive if I chicken out.

I’m frustrated because I don’t know how any t can help me with this. I understand my history and how I got here but it’s not the same as being able to make changes.

If any of you suffer from social anxiety and making by friends how can a t actually help? If they were not helpful what did you do on your own? I’ve watched some interesting videos on YouTube about how to make friends as an adult. Halp!
