I was going to post a separate thread on this but then I thought actually it fits right here.
I’m not particularly concerned about covid anymore, that’s not to say I think it’s no longer a threat, just that I personally have had it and was okay.
But I am really aware of how the last 2 years have affected my mental health. Specifically my anxiety and social anxiety issues. Over the last 10 years I made great strides with my social anxiety, I mixed with more people, I did a whole host of different activities. Slowly I did improve- okay not the life and soul of the party but every day functioning good.
Now I feel uneasy about socialising. Not terrified but uneasy. I have not been for an evening out in over 2 years. Tomorrow night me and my h are going out, a low key musical event, then afterwards I booked a nearby hotel. I want to do it - that’s why I booked it but I feel uneasy. I wish I could just let go and have fun.
