🎯 Welcome to Social Anxiety Sucks This post will give you everything you need to know to get started, stay engaged, and get the most out of this group. Please read carefully. ✅ What This Community Is About - A safe, supportive space to build confidence and challenge our fears - Access to strategies, coaching insights, and tools you can use in real life - Accountability, encouragement, and progress alongside others who get it 📌 Community Guidelines To keep this space powerful and safe, everyone agrees to: - Respect: No judgment, bullying, or unsolicited advice - Confidentiality: What’s shared here stays here - Action-Oriented: We focus on progress, not perfection - Zero Tolerance: Spam, self-promotion, or negativity will result in removal ⚠️ Important Disclaimer: Coaching ≠ Therapy This community is built around coaching, education, and peer support. While powerful, it is not therapy and should never be used as a replacement for professional mental health treatment. - Coaching focuses on building skills, confidence, and forward momentum. - Therapy addresses clinical mental health issues, past trauma, or conditions that require licensed care. - If you are experiencing severe anxiety, depression, or mental health struggles that interfere with daily life, please seek help from a qualified mental health professional. Your mental health matters, and if at any point you feel you need therapy, we encourage you to prioritize that alongside (or instead of) coaching. 🔑 Pro Tips For Success - Give things a try even if they feel uncomfortable at first - Celebrate your wins (big or small) — momentum inspires others - Ask for help when you need it — that’s what we’re here for 🙌 Final Word This community is for you to push yourself an help hold you and each other accountable. That being said, social anxiety can make it difficult to participate even if you are in a judgment free zone. While participation is encourage, you will never be expected to participate, and I ask that we do not pressure others if they are not ready.
