Social Anxiety Memoir
Out of My Shell: Overcoming Social Anxiety from Childhood to Adulthood is a new mental health memoir by therapist Natasha Daniels.
PHOENIX, AZ, UNITED STATES, September 19, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- 15 million American adults have social anxiety. That is roughly 7% of the entire population. More than two-thirds of those adults showed their first symptoms during their childhood years. And yet, it often takes up to ten years to seek help. This is concerning considering that untreated social anxiety can put people at a higher risk for substance abuse and major depression.
For years, social anxiety whispered its way into Natasha Daniels' mind and quietly sabotaged her life. Even while working as a therapist, helping children to cope with their own anxiety, insecurity lurked in the shadows pointing out the stares, the rejection, the vicious comments from online strangers.
In this memoir, Natasha takes on the therapist's role with her past selves to drag her social anxiety into the open. From feisty Miss 6, lonely Miss 14 reeling from a tumultuous childhood, and defiant Miss 18 pushing back against a world where she didn't fit, through to her present self, Natasha explores the way social anxiety colored her experiences and finds healing through self-acceptance.
