Male Female

Well, if I have to talk about a time when I received unexpected help, I would mention my experiences in 2022 when I was suffering from social anxiety for approximately three months. During that time, no one was around me, as nobody was aware of my situation, but one of my university friends, Iida, came out of nowhere to help me. She supported me throughout that time. She motivated me and provided mental support. During my struggle with social anxiety, I was unable to speak and communicate with people, especially in public places. I was afraid of talking to others, and she really helped me get out of that difficult situation. The help was very unexpected, so I was very happy about it, and I am always grateful to her for being there for me. Otherwise, I would have suffered for a long time. So, whenever she is in trouble—I hope not—but if she ever faces any trouble, I promise I'll be there for her too.
