Hey there! I just saw that you were new to the site and I wanted to come say hi I'm Estelle, and I'm a Community Mentor on the site, which means I spend a lot of time on TH helping out new users and posting in the forums and the chat room.

If you ever need help with anything, like the social anxiety you mentioned in your post, the forums are an awesome place to ask about it. People here are really helpful and have some great advice if you ever need it. You can also shoot me a private message (or just reply to this one) if you have any questions about how the site works or need help with anything! I'm always up for a chat.

Also, since I've always wondered this, what's homeschooling like? Do you still have to take tests and stuff?

Hope to see you around!
