Stalled Social Life
It’s Friday night and you’re home, alone, zero invitations to go anywhere, it’s just you, your seltzer, and Netflix. Again.
You feel like your social life is stalled, you’re stuck in a rut of boring, and your regular activities just aren’t doing it for you right now.
But what do you do? How do you “have more fun”? And what about the crippling social anxiety you get when you go places where other people are??
Well, you’re in the right place, my friend, because in this episode we aren’t only talking about how to find more things to do, but I’m also giving you the lowdown on how to get your anxiety in check once you get there.
If that little voice in your head is saying:
- What the heck do I do now?
- Everything I do involves drinking.
- Everyone I know, drinks.
- How do I have fun, if I’m not drinking?
Then you’ll want to listen up, because I’m giving you all the answers. Not only are we taking a deep dive in some powerful ways to find fun things to do, but I’m giving you a step-by-step checklist on how to start breaking down your anxiety so that you can start planning fun events without that feeling of sheer panic.
I’m the master of faking a headache to leave early because my anxiety has all the power. But with a few simple actions, I put my anxiety on the back burner and I’m going to teach you how to do the same.
When you want to get out in the world, have fun and meet people it’s important to make sure you are doing things you love and not getting stuck in people-pleasing mode.
As a bonus, I’m going to give you a couple of quick questions to ask yourself to make sure you are doing things for yourself and not for others.
Then we’ll talk about strategies to break down your anxiety on a daily basis so that you feel confident going out in the world, and then we dig into some super simple strategies to get you out of your pajama pants and surrounded by two-legged friends who actually speak your language.
And then there’s a special bonus for you in the Facebook group, if you’re not a member you can join here.
