I Have Selective Mutism

A poem I had written a few years ago about Selective Mutism (SM), which is an anxiety disorder that makes is very difficult, basically impossible, to speak in social situations. We can speak perfectly fine when comfortable (home, with family and close friends), but physically cannot in situations such as school or public because of excessive anxiety. Those with SM would love nothing more than to be able to speak freely outside their home, but the anxiety is too overwhelming :'(

I love comments (including grammar corrections). I do not own the artwork, I give credit to the artist when I can find it. I do own the poems so please give me credit and all that stuff. I do doubt anyone would be using my poetry for anything but anyway. I have a new book titled 'You.' which you'll be able to find in my account.

Wanting Approval
He really wasn't sure when it started, but he doesn't think it will ever get out of his control like the people in those movies. Their stories are told just to scare people anyways. He was finally noticing a difference this summer. He needed his mothers approval before it would be enough. This he had learned is a tough task because being anything less than perfect does not earn one anything from her.Complete![F.A.F // H2OVanoss [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/102992446-256-k588854.jpg)
F.A.F // H2OVanoss [Completed]
Look at me, not too close, though, just from the outside. What do you see? A smile? Friends? Happiness? Joy? Everything that I could ever want? A perfect life, if you wanted to go that far. Now, look a bit closer. See those bags under my eyes? Hear the pain in my voice? The fatigue in my movements? Cautious glances, fearful expressions, the flinches at the slightest touch? Do you see that? Well, ignore it. Because, Fuckboys Are Fine. ------------- WARNING: This story contains some mature themes and triggering topics, please read at your own risk.Complete
Trapped in my own head
She is an outcast. She finds it easier to express what she feels in the form of writing. Whether it is poems, letters or long texts. These are poems that she writes trying to describe how it feels to live with certain mental health issues, in a world that disregards outcasts. So, these are on the darker side of the spectrum. Some poems might be distressing for some readers. I personally enjoy consuming dark content, it's kinda like a coping mechanism. I really hope none of you relate with any of these :) I'll be posting only poems here, I'll try to be as active as I can. The poems are not in any order. They are just the thoughts that pop up any time of the day. (8.11.2023) PS: Please check out 'safe space'. I need your help to make it a real safe space, readers!

Soliloquy - Poems on Life, Love & Longing (Wattpad Exclusive)
Featured: Wattpad Poetry Feb 2022 My times spent having conversations about life, longing and love.....with myself. In the company of solitude, I attempted to pen down a few lines on a range of emotions and experiences with a simple aim to revisit them in future. I urge the reader to join me and relive his and her own memories and find themselves. There are a few quiet conversations with 'her' as well. She visits seldom these days, busy with others seeking her. I miss her - 'life'. Hope we find meaning in our little conversations with ourselves and life.
