#hello queue-tie

I know many of my fears are irrational. You don’t need to remind me that it is silly to be scared to get on an elevator or spout statistics about how safe air travel is. I know all this. I know that I shouldn’t worry about ordering in a restaurant or talking to a store clerk. Even so, I do, and often my anxiety begins long before a situation occurs and doesn’t go away until long after. Please don’t belittle me for these fears, instead, be supportive.
