Hey guys! I'm a teen from europe and I've been diagnosed with anxiety. I have friends who live across the globe in USA. one of them happens to be one of my closests friends who I've known over a year now. we're very close and talk daily. 

ever since September of last year she has been asking to either video or voice call me. I've been refusing explaining to her that it makes me uncomfortable since i don't speak english as my first language and conversations can be very hard for me but she keeps on rushing me and she says she feels like I'm pushing her away. 

so this has lead me to try finding different ways of getting comfortable but so far I've been out of luck:( 

 i was wondering if this happens to anyone else and if anyone here has any tips on getting comfortable with calls? also speaking english is a very big insecurity of mine so if anyone has any tips on getting confident with pronouncing words that'd be great too!
