I am only 27 years old, but I'm really bad at using social media (I sometimes feel like a grandma). I downloaded instagram about 4 years ago, and was bad at using it too. One day, a teenager family member tried to educate me, and showed me the "stories" feature. I remember trying to post a picture of a cake just to try it out. And then I didn't care about the whole thing.

Fast forward 3 and a half years. 2 days ago I was looking through my old insta messages, and I found something. The picture that I tried to post was actually sent to someone. My crush to be exact. I don't think I DM'ed him, I guess I made a "private group", to show my stories just to them, and he was the only member of the group.

I started panicking the instant I realized what I did. I am in nonstop anxiety since then, and I just can't stop thinking about it.

I'm also scared because I realized my mistake more than 3 years later. That means that maybe I make these cringy, awkward mistake everyday not even realizing it. And I have enough problem from the cringy and awkward mistake that I do realize I'm making, my mental health just doesn't need another problem.

This happened such a long time ago, and a part of my brain knows that it doesn't matter now. Didn't even matter then. But I'm still suffering, and I don't how to stop. I hate anxiety!!!
