This is my first time writing about this online so not sure how to start...my names Immanuel, I’m 26...I’ve never been diagnosed by a doctor with having
social
anxiety
but I’ve had all the symptoms since I was around 16-17 years old.

Have always been shy and had
social
anxiety
. Hell it was even hard to put this post on here!!! And of course I beat myself up for being like this adding to my already low self esteem. But I'm going to try. I hope I can change. Any suggestions and encouragement would be appreciated.

The Mask
I turned into a lonely mute at school and the bullying along with my
social
anxiety
began. At 29 years old I wrestle within myself to form trust and genuine connection with other people. I put on a mask everyday and to some I might seem like a “successful young woman”.

Getting worse!
This is hard for me because I suffer from extreme
social
anxiety
so I don’t handle changes well. Anyways I have been under a lot of stress from school and hiding my failures from my family because I feel weak telling them I am not the smart girl they always claimed I was.

On the bright side...
At least my agoraphobia and
social
anxiety
has come to some good use. I have been
social
distancing and self-isolating pretty much my entire adult life!

Anyone else have trouble with meditation? Thoughts/advice.
That that's where my
social
anxiety
might stem from as well. That being uncomfortable is being vulnerable, and so being in situations that I cant control makes me anxious. In mediation the goal is to let go, and letting go of that control is why I have such a hard time with it.

Not Feeling Bad and Wondering Why
As a person who spends most of my time alone, being in quarantine is just every day living for me. I usually operate with some form of depression due to my loneliness and inability to make connections with others but lately I've been.....great. I thought that seeing all of the Zoom parties on social

Are home tests reliable?
I have suffered from mental health issues for mostly all my life (for context: autism, bulimia nervosa,
social
anxiety
, depression). I have been feeling awful lately, gained 35 kg over the last 18 months, a lot of anxiety, feeling really tired... I take lyrica for anxiety and nothing else.

I feel like nothing ever goes my way.
So it’s going to be full of all of these people who I don’t know and who I’m not friends with and me being socially awkward and having
social
anxiety
, It’s not looking positive.

Ocd and emotions
He told me and showed me a pic of me that captioned horrible things about me and said he would send it to everyone on and off
social
media . That put my
anxiety
through the roof! I feel so guilty that I put my sister in that predicament.

Isolation
With my state under a shelter in place order, I've had to basically stop my exposure therapy for
social
anxiety
. I have therapy daily. It's the only time I get out of the house. I can go for walks but it's still not social exposure.

Even more social anxiety now
I was already socially very anxious and conscious with my chronic coughing, sniffing and throat clearing and now Corona Virus scare? People are going to be even more disgusted and scared around me.

What do you do when you are struggling with depression, (social)/anxiety) and you literally have no support system?
What do you do when you are struggling with depression, (
social
)/
anxiety
) and you literally have no support system? No family, no friends. I have a therapist that I don’t really find relief from.

Social Anxiety while starting a new relationship.
Hello guys. So just recently ive decided I wanted to start a new relationship. And everything was going great until of course like any other normal person does, he wanted to meet up with me. We have met before but a long time ago. He does not suffer with the same situation as i do, but he wants to see

Someone hurt me
Since then I have struggled with memory loss, fatigue, insomnia, lack of coordination, facial disfigurement, muscle damage,
anxiety
and
social
anxiety
. I'm really overwhelmed at sharing this, I cant decide if I'm ready to click post and if I do if I will delete my profile immediately.
