Every time I'm gonna say something online and in person I don't say anything because I'm afraid of messing up and accidentally offending someone even though most of the time I want to help them. Sometimes I can't even go up to a friend and talk about art or something. I mostly stick around online which is why I stay for hours on end on discord or YouTube. I end up thinking I'm an idiot for not helping someone and right now is not a good time to be depressed as the school year comes to its last months and tests.
It's totally natural to feel a little nervous when talking to people and to be concerned about what you might say. A great tip is to write down your ideas ahead of time and practice in front of a mirror. I’ve found that it really helps me feel more confident and relaxed.
If you think it would be beneficial, you can also reach out to 2NDFLOOR for some role-playing assistance. We're here to help!
