My anxiety is paired with my self-esteem. At a KATG event I fee very comfortable because we're already family. At a party where I don't know anyone, I just become an observer unless I already know someone, and then we become observers together [emoji28] Big "You" season 3 energy (I think, I've never watched but I assume they're weirdos)

I wish I could let you experience life the way I experience it.
Lots of it has to do with my job. I know rejection, but experiencing it in a professional context helps me not taking it personally. But it sometimes still hurts! Still, it’s like a desensitization therapy. Overall people seem to enjoy me and I get energy from social interactions.

The German call it Rampen Sau.
It’s something like limelight hog.
Parties don’t drain me. But also, I’m always the same. Radical authenticity is key for enjoying social gatherings. Stay true to yourself and you feel relaxed among people, no matter who they are.
I still enjoy quiet time and nature a lot on weekends.
