I don’t think most people know that I’m shy. This means, either I’ve gotten closer to overcoming it or I’ve gotten better at hiding it. I fear the latter but it could be a little of both.

My coworkers call me “sassy” and “mouthy” (they are, too, and that’s why I like them). I believe this is a rare side that is only seen when I’m totally comfortable with people – and that usually does not happen immediately. In unfamiliar situations, internally, I’m still fighting off a sense of fear that keeps me from doing/saying things that I’d like. Basically, my point is, someone, somewhere would suggest that I take medication.

I think what helps me more is realizing that everything is really insignificant, or at least, not as significant as I make it. So not caring about anything is good, for me, anyway.
