you can absolutely do this! i know it’s hard especially with the anxiety constantly there trying to convince you otherwise, but you’re going to be fine!! Ive felt this same way but I usually find that once i’m in the moment the anxiety subsides…I know you can do this, rooting for you! 💕
aweee it’s all going to be okay! 🤍 if you are not ready for your first kiss, that’s okay! do it at your speed! and if you do and it’s awkward, then it’s awkward! i’ve had a lot of awful kisses and i look back and just laugh. everyone has had awkward kisses. i am a very awkward person and i embrace it. who wants to be perfect all the time! just try to enjoy yourself and have fun!! that sounds like an awesome date! you got this. stay safe 💖
It’s going to be just fine! It’s completely normal to be nervous but you have to imagine that he is also nervous too! If he tries to kiss you, let him lead and don’t over think it. Just relax and let the conversation flow and get to know eachother. Ask questions about school, life, family, pets ect. That sounds like he planned a really nice first date and sounds like a great guy! Good luck🥰🥰
Thanks for the advice guys!! I went and I had a lot of fun :) he didn't kiss me but he held my hand and put his arm around me and hugged me and that was all fine! He invited me to hang out on Saturday with him so I guess it must have gone well! I'm still nervous for if he kisses me mainly bc I haven't kissed anyone and I know he has and so I'm afraid he will think I'm weird for not having kissed anyone but I am going to take this as a win! You all calmed my nerves a lot though, so thanks :)
Yay!! I’m so happy for you 🥰
As everyone else has said you will be just fine. And speaking from a guys POV , it wouldn’t matter if you kissed like a walrus he’s gonna like it! Trust me on this! Now smile and go do your thing!
i’ve felt this same way before and in the moment the anxiety really does go away! if you’re ready for your first kiss then 100% go for it, don’t let your anxiety take it away from you! you got this, enjoy your date!!
Aw is normal to feel that way . Everything will be fine . Just enjoy the time and be natural. Good luck 🤞🏼
Guys I need help. I feel so alone . Basically I have this compulsion where I feel the need to write everything but this stems from me being anxious about EVERYTHING. Like my mom came in my room and I was irritated and snapped, immediately regretted now I keep writing “don’t be mean to mom next time” but I keep thinking about it. Then I think about how I finally left my house today and all the surfaces I touched that could’ve been contaminated and now I’m writing “next time don’t touch this and this”. Then I think about all the things I need to be doing for this week and I’m writing “don’t forget to do this and this” even though I’ve written it 5 times already. This is what happens everyday btw. My brain always thinks about something I need to be doing and making me anxious that I’ll forget it which is why I write it down on my notes app. I’m sooo mentally exhausted I need help pls!! Anyone have any advice ? I used to think I need to stop the writing but really I need to stop the anxious thoughts coming into my head . People say I need to accept the thoughts and let it go but that’s too hard for me
I’ve been trying my best with ERP and just everything that’s going on. I have severe OCD, GAD, PMDD, panic disorder, recently diagnosed ADHD, and currently experiencing a major depressive episode. Apparently. I was taking a break from this app but I really need support right now. My family is honestly really mean and not understanding of what I’m going through. Right now it’s gotten bad to the point I had to withdrawal from my last semester of university. My only support is my boyfriend and he’s now planning to join the military. I won’t be able to talk to him for 3 months and I feel really scared of being alone with all of this. I know I shouldn’t depend on him to begin with but right now I’m at an extremely low point and I feel like I won’t make it alone. There hasn’t been a single day we haven’t texted and talked in 4 years. I feel really scared, but I don’t want to hold him back. You guys, I feel so sad and terrified right now. I don’t want him to go, he’s all I have.
Hi I kept seeing this app on repeat on TikTok over and over and I thought I give it a shot. I have never been diagnosed with OCD but I know that I have it. I’m a young adult and I found out the first time I had OCD was watching lelelons truth video? I was 14 at the time She had to resist sitting back down in a chair after her having sat down she started having a mental break down when she was told to resist. That’s when I knew. It started with myself going up and down a staircase twice buckling unbuckling my seat belt everytime I’m in the car ect I have always been super anti social but trying my best I can socialize but my mind wants to make it sexual with family and friends ughhhh I hate it because that’s not me when I graduated thoughts of hurting my loved ones corrupted my mind I broke down outside of church one time asking if this was really me or not i question if I’m a good enough friend or person in this world to begin with thinking everyone is judging me so so close how can I make this situation better did I do something wrong I struggle with depression as well not to bad but it’s there I come from a loving family but broken as well i believe in god and my OCD makes me go often he’s not real that stuff isn’t real no one is there to save you the list goes on. Anyway I struggle a lot and I really hope that this will help me because I feel extremely hopeless. Lucky for me I do have the ability to seek therapy and I am excited. The only person I ever tell my thoughts to is God no other human has heard so I’m really really hoping this helps me out if your reading this thank you it means a lot because this is my first time ever admitting all this it’s a lot to take in I know and I hope you are ok and that you have a great night and know that we got this
