    What's going on?

    I think try to be calm for your grandma. Take slow breaths.

    Breathe in through your nose and count to four while you do it. Concentrate on your belly going in and out.

    Breath out through your mouth and count to four as you do it. Repeat, slowly. It's good to control breathing, it controls anxiety.

    You're okay! You're safe!

    I own a pair of size 6 pants right now and Im at a weight that used to fit a size 9 perfectly. My 9s are from 2010 and they are baggy but when I was in highschool 2004-2007, I was a perfect 9 at this weight

    I have no idea what sizes mean these days.

    I can be anything from a UK 16 to a 22 at 211 pounds, depending on where I buy the clothes from. I buy a lot online and that is a minefield. When they say XL and that equals a14. To me an XL should be at least an 18 as it is above the average.

    I have figured out through trial and error the sites that have sizes suitable for me.

    I know you are being sincere sweetie. It is difficult when you are anxious. Good to keep busy. Like cmriverside said take slow deep breaths. It is ok, you will be ok.

    I'm socially awkward
    That's why I might seem mean or brash
    I have social problems
