Sometimes I wish that people knew I had social anxiety
I know most people try to hide it and I do to but there are some days I just want to scream I have
social
anxiety
! I’m so tired of people saying “oh she’s just antisocial” or “she’s just an introvert”. I know they mean well but it’s so annoying. I DONT want to stay at home all the time!

I don't know what I want.
My
social
anxiety
is terrible, I can't even get up w/out wondering what people think of me. My OCD gets so bad sometimes where it effects my daily life, having to count every single thing I do. I feel like I have a panic attack a few times a week, and I often feel anxious.

How does talk therapy help you?
I have
social
anxiety
and am also struggling with depression. One of my "goals" from therapy is to make more friends but even talking about that and what I would have to do to make that happens makes my heart race!

Debilitating
Got diagnosed with GAD,
Social
Anxiety
disorder, and Panic disorder when I was 15. On and off meds for years. I can go years before debilitating anxiety starts up again. Shortly after Xmas I started having a dream like state that I couldn’t snap out of.

Severe social anxiety and depression...☹️
I could have gone much further in life, but unfortunately my
social
anxiety
sets me back. Depression is so bad that I cry for no reason. I always have suicidal thoughts, but would never be an option. I want so bad to feel normal again. Anyone with similar issues?

2nd Week of Going to a University
My
social
anxiety
is still through the roof, and I’m still feeling anxious whenever I even walk outside with people around me, or sit in a public classroom.

Lonely, anxious, depressed.
I’ve been battling
social
anxiety
/
social
difficulties for 16 years, and I still haven’t gained much, though it’s a lot better than before. I’m tired of fighting, I wish it were easier, and I wish I could get what I need or know where to find it or how to find it.

How do I overcome my social anxiety?
I usually have some mild form of
social
anxiety
. It's gotten bad recently because I'm currently living with three other people, and will be doing so for the next few months. I like to have my own space, yet I feel inclined to join into conversations or I'll feel left out.

Sleep problems, nightmares etc.
Could be caused by TV and news programs. You may watch drama,s and soaps and the news. But what you do not realise you think it does not affect you ! But it does. Your mind thinks o I understand all this emotion violence, etc it's only make believe. But your subconscious mind does not know the difference

Self Worth at a low this week.
My therapist told me its just my
social
anxiety
, but I don't know if it is when the evidence feels so overwhelming. And if it's not something I'm doing, then what is it? Someone once told me it was a sacrifice of their time to spend time with me. So maybe that's it?

Constant Fear and Crying From Anxiety and Depression
Hi everyone, I'm new and got here by looking up
anxiety
online support groups. I've always had terrible
social
anxiety
but I started better managing it a few years ago with 'how to talk' and 'how to be polite' books. I've also been a bit depressive since childhood.

Nightmares
Hey guys..Wondering if anyone alse on here has nightmares from PTSD. My Dr. prescribed a new medicine to me about 6 months ago, and it works very well. No more nightmares, or waking up soaked with sweat. Hoping this might help someone..It's called Prazosin, and it's been a miracle for me!

Could it be hormones?
It used to be that I would have episodes of panic (tears, quickened pulse) that could be directly traced to a cause (usually involving
social
anxiety
). Out of nowhere I think I started experiencing panic attacks.
