wouldn't open my e-mail over anxiety, or meet people in person..But e-mails are no longer daunting, and I can confidently meet people in person now .

I can relate to this so much. As human beings we can have some really irrational fears, and it's a real shame that some of these anxieties have hindered someone as skilled in their craft as you. What's wonderful, though, is that you have overcome many of those hurdles. All the best on your journey; I can't wait to see you grow further!

@Jonas-Zavacky Thank you!

@animatosoor Irrational for sure. Feeling like the world would treat me the same as those around me. Had to get past it in person as well, created a general fear of people. I still meet bad people, and have even had some down right harsh bad clients, but it's much easier now. Sometimes cutting ties and dumping a job is better than suffering. I love reading the clients from hell page.

Wish there weren't people like that out there, but it's part of life.
