(But social anxiety is a mental health thing. Mentally ill means mentally unsettled, not retarded. I have social anxiety and depression. That doesn't put me at a lower status, it is just my state of mind. I hate being judged, and being shunned, but as long as I live, I try to be mindful and joyful, because being alive is a gift. I rarely succeed, but when you hit rock bottom, the only way to go is up, up, up!)
(Im sorry you have social anxiety and depression. Ive gone through depression before and it sucks. Being alive is a gift and everyone should cherish it)
(Yeah. But hey, depression is not being sad 24/7, it's just being burdened with so much stuff, that you can't stand up without support. And social anxiety is like being sucked into a tornado, not knowing how long you can hold on. I'm doing a lot better, and things are looking up!)
