Overcoming Chronic Pain and Social Anxiety

I’m proud of myself this week! ☺️ I have chronic pain and don’t usually do any exercise, but this year I wanted to change that. Unfortunately I had Strep A at the beginning of the year which was really bad so I couldn’t do anything, but this week I’ve been feeling a bit better so I have been on 2 walks and went to a Pilates class today, it’s a start at least! 🧘🏻‍♀️ I also usually have pretty low self-esteem and feel very self conscious in public, I guess because of my social anxiety. But today I have talked to 3 strangers, and I was nervous on the inside but I managed to talk to them okay and I wasn’t self conscious today and didn’t even have any makeup on ☺️💗
