#histrionic positivity

we are so god damn cool 

here’s to histrionics with social anxiety who want attention but have trouble speaking up, who have trouble socializing,

here’s to histrionics whose social anxiety wins and keeps them from attention

here’s to histrionics with social anxiety who dont feel histrionic because they dont display symptoms, who may feel they could never be diagnosed or have been told they are not histrionic because their social anxiety keeps them from seeking the attention they need

here’s to histrionics with social anxiety who took years to realize they were histrionic because of their social anxiety, who still doubt themselves, who feel like they will always doubt themselves and their identity

here’s to histrionics with social anxiety who fight tooth and nail against their social anxiety to interact and flirt and get attention

here’s to histrionics with social anxiety who seek attention and have their social anxiety disqualified or shoved aside or treated as less serious because they are able to interact in groups.

here’s to histrionics with social anxiety who feel too complicated, who feel like a walking conflict, who feel like they have to chose one identity or the other
