“Got customer service job to help with social anxiety”

Got customer service job, quit due to panic attacks, tried modeling and music, none helped

What I wish I knew
"Social anxiety doesn't improve with front-facing activities"
If I could tell you one thing
"Seek therapy that addresses root causes, not just symptoms"
