Being Shy and Having Social Anxiety Are Not the Same Thing
So, let me start this off by saying that I am not the most patient, tolerant person in the world. However, as someone who identifies as an empath, I do believe I'm in the top 5. Either way, I think it's high time that people recognize social anxiety for the severe disorder it is, rather than over-generalizing it and chalking it up to simply being "shy."

The Time The E.R. Ignored My Kidney Stones Still Haunts Me
It's been quite a few years since my first run-in with kidney stones, and honestly, the experience still haunts me. Just imagine all-but-crawling into the emergency room with crippling abdominal pain, only to be given a prescription for pain meds, no examination, and shooed away like some pill-popper going through withdrawal.
