I'm sure many of you with SA can agree that getting out of it can be a slow process for many. Sometimes it feels like I'm getting no where with my SA, but I've realized lately that I've done things that I wouldn't have imagined doing a year ago. I guess it had to do with starting college. Even my family noticed a change in me over the past year. And it's it's realizing that I've been able to change a little that encourages me to keep working at it.
Some improvements are:
-I used to have a huge phobia of using the phone (I guess it's because I can't see a person's face/body language) so I was afraid to even set up appointments or ask questions and such over the phone. But now, though I still get a bit nervous, I really don't have much of a problem with doing that.
-I've been able to talk to more guys, and I even invited myself to eat with some guy friends.
-In HS I usually had no one to talk to in my classes, now I have at least 2 people I talk to in every class.
-I'm more friendly and open to new people that I meet.
Some of them seem pretty small, but they've been some pretty big steps for me.
So I was wondering if anyone here found themselves able to do something now, no matter how small, that they wouldn't have been able to do at least a year ago because of their SA.
