How can I become more patient to get better when the recovery is going slower than Serbian trains?
How can I become more patient, when it seems like I'm standing still and whenever a few better days come I fall back down for much more days?
I think we all feel like this sometimes, and the biggest thing is to remember that it is okay to feel everything you are feeling. Days seem like waves sometimes. Somedays you are playing in the waves and other days they are knocking you down. Some days will be good and some will be bad. And nobody can tell you which days will be good, and when things will get better. But, I promise one day they will be better. And right now you are learning how to stand through the hard waves and gray skies, it's okay to feel stuck. But, you must remember that the skies will become blue and you will play in the waves again. You will make it to a point where the gray skies are few and it feels like summer. Our patience is found in the process of healing slowly and understanding that while we can not see the process from day to day we are getting better. I fell stagnant sometimes but, I realized that like a wound, these things heal and get better slowly. Nuture yourself as if you have a cut inside that is slowly healing. Cuddle up in bed to a good netflix movie, and take it easy. Be kind to yourself through out the process. And I believe in you!

All I can say, being one who has come a very long way in progressing out of my own social anxiety, is to try to look for positives. Things you can do now that you couldn't do back then. While I have a long ways to go to get out of my social anxiety and need much help I can't find, I can't say things haven't gotten better at all from the worst. We might have this desire for everything to be gone right way, but the thing is a lot of these things developed and have stayed as life patterns for a lot of years. So what has been made in years won't be removed in a day, but will take some time. Perhaps the best advice out of this is the willingness to accept yourself at your current point and to try and find the hope that if you know what to do to help yourself out of it that things will get better in the future.
That said, I hope things do get better for you soon!
