Public speaking terrifies me. I don't understand people who have so much confidence that it doesn't phase them. I get petrified. 

​

My anxiety also effects my work. I get nervous to present new ideas even though I know they are good ones. I don't have the confidence to tell someone I know I am right or that what they said was wrong. I sometimes am considered a push over because I severely dislike confrontation. 

​

I go to therapy and my therapist is helping me to gain the confidence to work through these things but says it takes time. I wish other people knew that too. I wish people understood that my anxiety is the cause of my insecurities. Unfortunately, my anxiety has shaped who I am as a person and my characteristics.
