Overcoming: Social anxiety by making friends and a fitness and nutrition obsession. I'm becoming the best me there is!

[Amanda (OvercomerSeeker) @OvercomerSeeker]

Introducing myself to the world:
40-sg wife, mom, employed.
Suffer social anxiety that debilitates me with hubby, kids' friends, church. Can't seem to function sometimes, horrified over little things.
Twitter is an experiment for me to get outside my comfort zone, make friends.

@SpiritedSparr0w My brother passed over 40 years ago. I still struggle am I a sibling or only child? It never goes away. Easier to not deal with questions from strangers to say only.

@Uber_Support I've literally tried for a year to get my account back from a hacker. I've chatted with support a dozen times. Why can Uber not help me solve this issue? I'm a Lyft user now...

[Amanda (OvercomerSeeker) @OvercomerSeeker]

@Uber_Support Off & on for a year I've been dealing with Support to get a hacker off my account. Latest if 5 days wait and they'll "get right back to me." WTH? How can I get help to actually deal with this?

@AskTU How do I dispute someone's name on my credit report that is NOT me? Online says contact you if I want to change MY name.

This speech has now been seen by about 5 million people across different platforms.

Is it possible that the silent majority get it? 😉

[Amanda (OvercomerSeeker) @OvercomerSeeker]

@frozzleberg I fully endorse this! I write notes all over. Who loves/hates it. What modifications I made. So helpful later!

@med_conscience Raycon fitness earbuds. Bright color so I don't lose them. Great sound.

@goldenrose_79 Lobby of children's hospital denver ER. I'm on the plexi side of the well room. Which is past all the not-well waiting area. Grabbed a seat anywhere we could. However glad people are wearing the masks of it helps me not get whatev the kids are spewing all over.

If you stumble, make it part of the dance. #chomps

Love this. Recover from a stumble, make it part of your story, and move on and don't repeat that exact thing.

@ScreaminSardine @docanarchy The peels to how much water approx?

[Amanda (OvercomerSeeker) @OvercomerSeeker]

@docanarchy Hiccups. Teaspoon of sugar. Dribble a little bit of water on it. Not enough so it wet and loses the granular-ness. Swallow the sugar. Works almost every time. High school bio teachee taught that.

@BowTiedRads @med_conscience @BowTiedBull Is there a link for this you can give? Trying to read it and it gets blurry zoomed in. My 18yo just asked the other day if he should get a CC.

@FitzgeraldSTA I read some of the responses & I just don't even understand the amount of abbreviations and acronyms. I felt like I was hardly reading English. The arguments ended up lost on me. & I think that's sad.

@ladytronfanclub Probably What Have I Done to Deserve This. Then WEG, Suburbia. It's really hard to pic a fav.

[Amanda (OvercomerSeeker) @OvercomerSeeker]

@med_conscience He can string that many words together to make a sentence.

It would take a couple days, teleprompters, whispered voices, maybe one of those ear mic things the secret service uses.

🤣

[Amanda (OvercomerSeeker) @OvercomerSeeker]

This was totally fascinating. I watched the video as well. I had no idea about most of this....

The inconvenient truth about climate change is that solving it will involve digging, blasting & leaching more minerals from the skin of this planet than ever before.
No one much likes to talk abt this.
But talk about it we must.

@thriving__kids Being friends, not parents, with their kids.

Being too afraid to let them fail or to discipline them.
