Social Anxiety Meetup plus Working from Home

I started a social anxiety meetup group in NYC! Finally! Also, I've been feeling a surge of social anxiety and panic since taking a break from therapy. I had to request that I work from home for a little bit. It took a while to explain my situation but my job granted me this option for a while, it is not permanant.

*S.A. = Social Anxiety

SIDE NOTE: I sometimes use the term shy and social anxiety and introvert interchangeably but introvert is actually different. You can be an introvert and not have social anxety. Some people say shy is the same as social anxiety and some say its the same as introversion but I use the term painfully shy to mean social anxiety because social anxiety is painful! Just wanted to clarify this.

I'm available for hire for freelance writing and guest posts about social anxiety. Would you like to be a guest on the PainfullyShy Radio Show? Contact: painfullyshy@rock.com.
