This is super weird for me to say but I also suffer from social anxiety. THE weird thing is that people would never guess since I'm so chatty and outgoing and to cover up my anxiety I think I've always been loud and outgoing and social and funny. But I always get nervous around new people and in...
I also struggle with insomnia and melatonin has helped a bit, you should also consider taking 400 mg magnesium. Very helpful. Drink some chamomile tea as well and lavender oil can help too.
