  • It took me two years to build up the courage to film this video on how it is to live with social anxiety. I hope you'll appreciate me sharing my story and advice.

    Our situations are so similar. I'm seen as stuck up when that is not the case. I'm called anti social by everyone. Social anxiety sucks. If I'm not comfortable person I can't look them in the eyes... I made a video recently about my story, but I did not go in depth like you did. It's crazy to see that there are so many other people like me. I know this took courage! You rock girl.

      Thanks Jazmyne! Yeah, it's crazy to see how many of us suffer with the same problem...

    It's so brave of you to share your story! I've had social anxiety for most of my life too, I was actually very confident and super social until the 3rd grade when I was targeted by bullies and things just went downhill from then. I'm so sorry you also went through all of this, I know how bad it can be and nobody deserves to suffer from social anxiety!

      It took me two years to pluck up the courage to put this out there, but I'm already glad that I did. I'm so sorry to hear you had to go through a similar situation. 😞 Sending love your way! 💕

    I like you for exactly who you are. I see a genuine, shy, sincere, honest and lovely young person. Do not change for the sake of others. Stay who you are… World needs more people like you.

    Sandra super video! Kot, da bi mene opisovala:) Ti si mi res velik vzor, da si se sama preselila v drugo državo, vem, da ti ni bilo lahko + iskanje službe. Res kapo dol za vse kar si dosegla in da ti je uspelo uresničiti sanje.

    Im really happy you made a video about this. I can relate alot to it. Makes me sad that others enjoy bullying because it does ruin someones life so easly. But it does make you a better person, i think. Because I know at least for me it made me a better person, even thou I was bullied and sometimes still am. Cuz hello adult life where people are still idiots.
    I look at things differently than most people. And I am happier cuz of it. It makes my life a bit harder but I learned to deal with it. And im happy you did too. And slow progress is still progress 😉

    • @SandraPotisek
      @SandraPotisek  8 років тому

      Yeah, some people never grow up, unfortunately... It does make you see things differently, I agree.

    Thank you for this video lovely! I also have Social Anxiety and I can really relate to the situations you mentioned and yeah it sucks :/ but I am soooo happy that you are doing better! I am not on that level yet unfortunatily, but this video for sure helped me on how to live better with it 💕 also...do more videos like that!!

    • @SandraPotisek

      You're more than welcome! I'm so happy to hear this video help you in a way. 💕 I hope it will get better for you too soon. To be honest, I had some very rough days this past week, with my general anxiety and social anxiety visiting me at the same time, but tomorrow is another week and I'm positive I can make it better. And you can too!

    Wow, we're very similar in this way! Congrats on sharing your story, I know what you mean about bullying UA-camrs when they make mental health vids, which is just silly. It's very big of you to bring this up :) Everyone thinks I'm super outgoing because of UA-cam and my career but I'm actually the opposite. Talking on the phone TERRIFIES me... It's weird because most of my friends are super extroverts so they just don't get it, lol.

    • @SandraPotisek
      @SandraPotisek  8 років тому

      Oh, wow, really?! I never would have guessed it either. I like you even more now, haha.

    Excellent video. I'm sure making UA-cam videos helped u a lot since you were posting videos that anyone could watch.

    • @SandraPotisek
      @SandraPotisek  8 років тому +2

      Thanks for watching! Yes, making youtube videos definitely helped me in so many different ways. Maybe I should do a video about the positive effects...

    So proud of you for sharing your story! I hope you never feel anxious to hang out with me. I'm def. friend w/ you bc I like you, not bc I have to. That would be so silly! In fact, I can't wait to see you in a few days and spend time with you :) And if you ever have a bad day, you can always call/skype/text/dm/etc me ❤️

    • @SandraPotisek
      @SandraPotisek  8 років тому

      Thanks Hanna! 💕 I definitely don't! You're one of those very few people I knew I could trust right away and I can't wait to hang out with you for two whole weeks very, very soon. I'm so excited to see you!

    • @HannaCreative
      @HannaCreative 8 років тому

    omg...You must be my soul mate or something. I am totally the same. Also, a lot of people told me I looked snobby before they met me. And I'm like....NOOOO, I want to talk to you so bad....I just can't. :( And I hate the fact I am also afraid to call me friends....I always think I will bother them.

    • @SandraPotisek
      @SandraPotisek  8 років тому

      Ahhh, it's so disheartening, isn't it?

    • @brinasuligoj119
      @brinasuligoj119 8 років тому

      Yeah, It's difficult. I wish I knew how to "fix" myself. But I don't think l ever will, because it's only been getting worse. Well, good luck to both of us!

    • @SandraPotisek
      @SandraPotisek  8 років тому

      I know, it really is difficult. I still have very bad days, but the good days make me hopeful.
