F40.10 Social Anxiety Disorder: Pom-Pom Beanie
Double-layer acrylic knit — stretchy and warm, with a rolled cuff that doubles over your ears. The fit is snug without pinching; how far you pull it down controls the slouch. Flat embroidery sits on the dome so nothing raised or scratchy presses against your forehead. The pom survives regular wear. Spare it the dryer. Contains no nuts.
Embroidered F40.10 on the cuff in the thread color of your choosing. Available in solid and two-tone hat colors — pick one that pairs with your jacket, your mood, or your fully justified reluctance to commit to a single aesthetic.
F40.10 — Social Anxiety Disorder. It is not that you hate people you just feel like your every move is being judged on a giant invisible scoreboard. Small talk feels like a performance review. This one is for the brain that treats every hello like a high-stakes performance review. The hat will not write your small talk for you, but it does function as a subtle sign that if you seem awkward, you are not doing it on purpose. It is a quiet flex that says "I showed up" even when your amygdala voted to stay home.

Sensory notes
Tagless, flat embroidery, double-layer knit (warmth without weight). Acrylic doesn't itch the way wool can. The pom is decorative — if it bothers you, snip the threads and you've got a regular cuffed beanie.
Care
Hand-wash cold, lay flat to dry. The dryer murders pom-poms. Don't.
