From an early age, much of Amy’s life has been consumed by anxiety, especially in social situations. 

Dating was especially difficult. 

Nerves around dating are something almost everyone can relate to. But for Amy, it was overwhelming dread. And for many years, it stopped her from even trying to form a relationship. 

Now in her 30s, Amy reflects on her early dating experiences. 

This episode of Not Alone was produced by Audrey Hughes and narrated by Margot Moore. Sound design by Jan Wong. Our theme song is Friends with Feelings, written and performed by Alice Skye, and produced by CAAMA music.
