One of the most humiliating moments was actually back in 9th grade. We had to dress up and pretend to be historical figures, and I was Mary Wollstonecraft. Full costume and everything. We were doing a mock interview in class, and when it was my turn, my brain just completely shut down. I’m standing there in this outfit, frozen for like a solid 45 seconds, and the teacher is just staring at me like… ‘…okay then, moving on.’ Nothing like forgetting how to speak when you’re dressed as a 18th century feminist. The other time was actually just two weeks ago. Something happened at work, and this lady came in to ask me a bunch of questions about it, even though it didn’t really involve me. I happen to be having a really bad stuttering day. The way she was firing questions at me made me completely freeze. I went into a full block and could barely get any words out unless I forced them. And then I started worrying she thought I was lying, which made everything ten times worse. It was honestly one of the most humiliating moments because I felt trapped inside my own body.
