Social Distancing #105

“When lockdown happened I was devastated. It took the better part of a lifetime to rid myself of the social anxiety that stopped me from performing. I’d finally discovered my community and my place in it- only to be forced back indoors, isolated and living alone! I was beyond frustrated and completely broke down.. until I realised that this wasn’t a set-back but an opportunity. 
I’ve been a bedroom drag queen since I was a kid. It’s how I kept myself company, it’s the place I went to escape reality. My best ideas have come out of long periods of isolation. So I’ve learnt to embrace this time (and myself) and committed to getting lost in my own little world again. 
I can’t wait to get out there and entertain once this is over. But for now, I’m falling back down the rabbit hole. See you on the other side!” Dita Von Queef
