Something I read on another blog today reminded me that I used to feel almost paralyzing anxiety when faced with decisions involving speaking to people. The only reason I did some things was because I'd be embarrassed not to. At the time, I assumed one grew out of that, & that many experienced it. Maybe that's why I did grow out of it. Looking back, I can't put myself in my old shoes. It all happened so gradually, I hardly noticed the fog lifting. And the only advice I give people doesn't seem to help them: "Just keep trying."
