I talked to strangers without getting anxious today and I'm kinda proud of myself I was at the cinema today so I had to talk with a few people and I did it without getting (too) anxious. Usually I dread talking to strangers bc I fear they will judge me for my stutter. But this time I did! So, yeah, I'm kinda proud of myself. That is all.
