Ripa claimed that therapy gave her deep insights into self-discovery. “I truly became aware of who I am,” she exclaimed. “I at last realised why it was that I found it so difficult to accept any kind of success.” This open and sincere statement clarifies Ripa’s continuous battles with social anxiety disorder, a subject she explores in more detail in her next book, “Live Wire: Long-Winded Short Stories.”
Ripa discusses the difficulties she has on a daily basis as a result of social anxiety in her memoir. She clarifies, “People assume that because I appear to be an extrovert on television, I am an extrovert in real life, which is not the case. Whoa! They refer to it as acting for this reason.
