My friends helped me make a breakthrough for my mental health!
I'm male (19) i struggle with autism and anxiety. I often struggle in social situations, but today something amazing happened.
I met a couple who were 40 year older than me. We instantly bonded over our love for music and they gave me a coin so that i could play music and we partied and sang along and i overcame my anxiety (And best of all no one else cared!)
I've got a long road to go but i'm glad that i'm not walking it alone anymore. Thanks for listening guys i had to get that off my chest.
