Similar to most college students around the US, my final exams are wrapping up which means that I will have to return to my little town for roughly three weeks.

Thanks to this sub, I started my process of improvement this semester. I wasn't very social during high school, so I joined various clubs such salsa dancing. I realized how much of an impairment social anxiety is and am trying to fix it. Also, I started trying to lift 6 days a week.

Due to my social anxiety, I made few friends in high school and didn't keep in touch. It being a small town just makes the problem worse. I am already starting to feel depressed regarding the three weeks that I will spend there, any suggestions on how to deal with this?

Thanks in advance.
