Yeah for me it’s really gotten easier since I’ve started doing streaming games online and talking with various people and stuff. Having people come and go and figuring out when someone is being kind or rude has helped a lot for figuring out when to engage, avoid, and even remove.

It’s easy for me to ignore different comments and just let it be, but I do really think about what I say before throwing it out there which is most of the stress, but it’s always getting better!

Sounds like you've figured out some great ways to work on the stress aspect - the fact that it gets easier is fantastic!

Yeah it feels like I’m just responding to everything now! I don’t even know who I am anymore

Lol, there you go! All you needed was to take that first step, and the rest has been taken care of for you just by nature of how asking a question works 😁

Just remember - worst case? Abandon this account and start another 😂

Haha Id love to keep this name so I’d just have to abandon to another instance! Thanks again for being so chill and helpful!
