(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Sounds like a normal situation; mum and dad split up, dad found another woman, dad marries said woman, and I get asked to be best man. However it's not all quite as simple as it seems. >.< I've suffered with severe social anxiety, amongst many other depressive an anxiety disorders since the age of 9-10; I find it physically difficult to put myself into any sort of social situation, and even struggle speaking to people on the phone. I'd been debating whether I was even going to go to this wedding, and although I've never really got on with my dad and he's never really understood my situation, it boiled down to the fact that he's my dad, and he's getting married, and he wanted me to be there.
But I am completely shitting it, now. We're leaving tomorrow to go to Wales, which is near enough 300 miles away from my home, so straight off there's the issue of not being able to walk home if it gets too much. x' there are going to be around 80-100 people there, many of which are complete strangers. And to top it off, I'm going to be fucking best man.. ;u; so I'll be standing up at the front with my dad the whole time..

I know this probably sounds pathetic to most people, but even people without anxiety disorders would be nervous doing this kind of thing; and people that have anxiety disorders will definitely understand. ;-; And I'm going to be wearing a suit and shit! A SUIT!! I spend most of my days in a long baggy jumper and boxers. ;-;

There are probably going to be people that tell me to 'man up', and that life isn't ever going to be easy, but guess what? That doesn't help.


Sooo... I don't really know if there's a point to this. u.u I guess I'm just putting it out there to get some moral support or some shit. XD and maybe by some weird chance, someone here with the same issues has been through the exact same thing? XD

Glad it all worked out ^^
