Went to the DMV

I needed to get a new ID. I moved to a new state almost 6 years ago and my ID expired in 2024. I haven’t really been out the house in 3 and half ish years, outside of taking out trash. I’ve been wanting to try and get a remote job, but need a valid ID. Luckily my sister has been a great help! She came to visit this week and took me. She knows about my anxiety and everything and knows I haven’t been out much. She’s very supportive! It was rough and I have social anxiety so the crowd didn’t help haha. Just kept my head down and tried to remain as calm as possible. Just wanted to share this lil victory of mine! It’s a lot easier for me when I have someone I trust with me.

It sucks, because after going somewhere like that you would think I’d feel secure enough to just go out anywhere haha, but not at all. All I could think was how I just want to be back home and not asked to leave again.

Sadly, she just left to start the long drive home and I am socially and mentally exhausted. But super ecstatic! Trying to get things back under control in my life after a few years of just, pretty much, giving up and this was the first step for me. 🌸
