Sports, school and social anxiety

Post Reply New Topic

I'd love to do some athletic, competitive things-- aka sports-- but with people like you guys, not with people like the ones at my old schools, or even any NTs, really. Has anyone else here ever felt like that, like they really almost need to do sports, but don't want to be judged, and yet know they'll be really good if they know they aren't judged?

I'm tempted to mention the Martial Arts...

and since i just did,watch "The Karate Kid"
and find a teacher like Mr Miyagi
and not the other guy

This reminds me of when i started running
and my dad asked me why don't i compete
which had me stumped
i ran in the now
to be exhilarated
and complete
for me

who is anybody else


that they should be proud of success
or ashamed of failure

at my expense

They missed out!
