I've noticed that recently I feel more comfortable talking to people. There's still some anxiety there, but I was able to order and pay for a coffee today (on campus), have a 10 min talk with my professor about assignments after classes, spoke up in class today and asked a question, and was able to talk to the receptionist at my therapist (that I saw later today) and pay a bill. These are things that would have terrified me to do even a month ago.
I think my SA is also getting a little better. Meds are helping a lot and so is just getting more practice in social situations. I am also realizing it doesn't really matter what other people think.
