What happens when you combine a shy boy with a society that excludes him for it?
Well, my story can be summed up with those words. I’ve always been someone who doesn’t like to stand out, draw attention, or steal the spotlight to be the center of attention.
Since I was little, I’ve struggled to talk to people, and because of that, I’ve often felt excluded. I’ve always been the one at parties who stays in a corner, watching others have fun, wondering, “Why can’t I be like that?”
And in school, where young people aren’t always helpful, the situation was even more difficult.
Until one day, tired of having no one to talk to, I decided to download various apps to meet new friends. Among all the ones I saw, one of them was Slowly.
I’ve now been on this app for several years. Over the course of my time here, I’ve made friends and shared things with them that I had never dared to share before. The wonders of technology! Together with therapy, I’ve set myself challenges to talk to more people and gradually overcome my shyness. I still have a long way to go, but it’s step by step.
Even though not all my letters get a reply, and sometimes I see that accounts have been deleted or people stop responding, there’s always the option to start again — and that’s the fun part of letters.
Despite being a very reserved and quiet person, Slowly has helped me connect with others.
