OH MY GOD. THIS. ALL OF THIS. I have social anxiety and generalized anxiety but I never thought being uncomfortable going to the bathroom in public or eating in front of others were also included (idk why I didn't realize it though lol) but while my uneasiness going to the bathroom in a public bathroom has gotten better I have been terrified of eating in front of people I'm not comfortable with. typically I only eat in front of family and friends and think nothing of it. but more specifically it's guys I'm uncomfortable eating in front of. I just recently got out of a 7-month relationship and I ate in front of him a total of two times one of which being the only dinner date we ever went on and the days leading up to it I almost made my self sick because I was so extremely terrified and uncomfortable with the idea, and both times I barely ate anything and was completely overwhelmed with anxiety through the entire meal. there had been so many times he had eaten in front of me, particularly lovely that he LOVED to eat so he was always eating, and even if I was literally starving I would refuse food because I would rather make myself starve than eat in front of him. it didn't help that I already have a hard time completely opening up to people specifically out of the fear of people being judgemental and unaccepting and manipulative about it, which is exactly what he ended up being. we didn't start our relationship on the right foot of knowing each other pretty well, so all of the getting to know you phase was trying to be done in the actual romantic relationship. I was definitely not able to be my true self around him and it didn't help that he both refused to open up to me because even a simple question about him was interrogating him as well as constantly telling me that I should change this and that about myself and that I need to be more like this or that. the constant judgment and telling me how I should change and literally attacking me about who I am as a person and what my life is like, despite not knowing much about it, just made my anxiety around him even worse. then he turns around and says that me not eating when he's eating makes him uncomfortable. then I feel like the bad guy and even more uncomfortable while also being too scared to explain why I don't eat with him and helpless about what to do. it was absolutely awful.
I also have a huge fear of getting food myself? like ordering food for myself, going up to a table with food by myself to get something to eat, ESPECIALLY when there is nobody around the table or if I don't have one of my parents there with me. it's caused me a lot of trouble already in life since I'm one month away from turning 18 and have only just started to make very slow progress. my family and friends have always given me grief about why am I like this? why can't I just go get my own food? why do I need their help with everything? what am I so afraid of? in all honesty I have absolutely no idea why I have this fear which makes me hate it that much more and makes it that much harder to deal with and try and overcome. I've had friends who have refused to even walk up to a counter with me while I order or wait for something, and then I just refuse to go and choose to starve out of pure fear. I have had many sad, anxious, and disappointing experiences of sitting at a restaurant with friends while they are all enjoying their food, I'm sitting there starving, desperately wanting to get food too but so completely terrified of doing it, that I spend the entire time zoning out trying to gain the courage to order food and eat, but never do, and then leave missing out on all the conversations my friends had because I was zoned out consumed with my hunger and overwhelming anxiety.
this is SO long oh my god. if anybody reads this, first of all, thank you so much for reading it all: ') it really means so much to know at least one person cares enough to read it all, and two, you are definitely not alone if you experience this. I am SOOOO glad I've finally started to realize this but I really hope me talking about my experiences might help someone else realize they aren't alone as well and that their feelings and anxiety and experiences are perfectly valid.

I get anxiety when eating infront of others in a public place. I don't eat messy or anything, honestly I try to keep my plate as clean as possible and use up alot of napkins. It all really started in my old school when I think it was 3rd grade, I can't remember, I was eating at a table and someone pointed out that I eat like a lizard basically bcs I sometimes without knowing kinda stick my tongue out a sec before putting the food in my mouth. For some reason, being the little shits they were, had some people around me making a deal out of it, into which I responded with a if you don't like it don't watch me eat. Really though, I was honestly embarrassed, even if it wasn't a big deal. I started to self conscious about how I look eating, I have low self-esteem, and I hate how I look, so I was also anxious to look weird eating. It got so bad to the point that I would always focus so much on how I look chewing, am I chewing too loud? Will people notice if I'm not chewing right? How much am I chewing and how long?
I didn't tell anyone about this, not even my parents or my brother, and i still alot of times feel like this whenever I eat at a restaurant or infront of family or my brothers friends.

My problem is, is that I know most of the people at my old school, but my social anxiety is terrible. I just moved I'm terrified about making new friends, going back to school when it's like halfway through summer. But another problem with my anxiety is I need to know people, I don't need to be friends with them, and I always need help from my family or something to help me talk to people.
Sorry if this makes no sense needed to vent I think

For the last one, my friend group did this thing where we were being honest about how we feel about the other and I straight up got a panic attack after one of my friends talked about something I did a lot that didn't please them (as a people pleaser that shit hurt. That was. nice.

The only thing that gives me anxiety is eating in front of others. which is why I usually don't eat my lunch at school, even when my mom tells me she'll stop giving me lunch (which I know for a fact that ain't happening) I don't know what to do bout this situation

Presentations. I've done dozens of presentations and singing performances and always start panicking. I also have some speech problems. Forming words or sentences that's understandable to the listener. it's all a big nightmare.

Even if i dont have anxiety this scares me most:
Eating in public makes me get scared
Very big parties scare me
Making my own choices scares me because i am scared maybe it may offend some people
And talking to too much people

I get anxious when someone asks me a question in my classroom full of people, on stages, to reveal my opinion, eating in front of others, in front of any PEOPLE. Doesn't matter who it is. I don't get anxious only in front of my mom.

I do drink a lot of coffee. D= I can both be the person who enjoys the crowd, and the person who won't even go in because of the crowd as well. I do believe I lean towards anxious habits and mindset though perhaps

Im always afraid of doing something wrong, so when I DO make a mistake. I immediately get anxious and start questioning why I did it in the first place.
