Changes
I've been dealing with
social
anxiety
for over twenty years now and it has changed my personality so much! I hate it! Do any of you have ways you deal with this? Journaling, meditation?

I ruined my recovery again...
I joined because I have really bad
social
anxiety
and depression. I’m also a little lost for what to do rn so could use a little advice. A couple months ago I was prescribed sertraline, after multiple a&e trips (I was constantly trying to kill myself).

New here, appreciate tips for social anxiety
I often feel stupid or silly when I act like myself around others, even close friends. I crave social interaction, but I usually stress out about every little thing and worry that people won't like me. In the end, I think I'm so reserved due to a fear of be perceived negatively, that I am seen as boring

Anxiety When Waking Up & Other Things
I was diagnosed with panic disorder,
social
anxiety
and mild depression in March. I was wondering if anyone has tips for combating morning anxiety. Many days I wake up with that heavy feeling in my chest for no discernable reason.

I Think I'm Developing Depression
I already have
social
anxiety
, but i think I'm developing depression now, too. I've had almost all the symptoms for at least the past two weeks. But, because of anxiety, I keep thinking that I'm making it up and I'm always worried if I actually have it.

Am I experiencing a Mixed Episode?
Could be a coincidence but my debilitating
social
anxiety
seems to have disappeared. Now, I just feel utterly nothing; I've felt like this for ages but now it's so boring.

Bouncing Today
I am the worse one to have to put on a show - the one with
social
anxiety
and a fear of speaking in front of a crowd. Late Monday night I got a phone call from my sister and you know it wouldn't be good - late night calls are never good.

It's okay.
Haven't been on here in a while. I recently broke my ankle and have been out of work for almost a month now. It gets kinda depressing but i'll be better soon. Still taking Venlafaxine and Bupropion. Life's good guys.

Vyvanse + Talking too much
What's strange is that before Vyvanse, I wasn't necessarily the most introverted person, but I definitely had my
social
anxiety
issues where I was never quite sure how to cut off conversations so I often cut them off prematurely.

I'm new here
I'm hoping to be able to talk openly about my
social
anxiety
and get to know people who have the same struggles as I do and especially how they cope with it.

Social anxiety and finding a job
I have major
social
anxiety
, which means I literally have zero friends, and I can't keep a job because of my anxiousness. I do have a bf of 7 years but he's been getting tired of me not being able to hold a job for the past 3 years and does not understand my huge fear of driving.

Loneliness vs Aloneness
Hello there, I don’t frequent this site as much as I should, but just thought I’d post something. I suffered from Anxiety, Depression and OCD for over 20 years, but have been helped tremendously by a gene/body chemistry test(I forget the fancy name for it.) It basically lets you know which meds would

Social Anxiety
Hi, I’m Kristine and I’m living with
social
anxiety
, panic disorder anxiety and depression. Severe depression. I am new to this community and wanted to see how it works. I’m just at a loss and feel horrible today and I don’t think anyone cares when I talk. Because I talk too much.

Social anxiety
I’m 21 and I think I’ve had
social
anxiety
since I was 15. It’s affecting my day to Day life and holding me back on things I’d like to do, but I’m scared to go to the doctors about it. I went when I was 19 and the doctor basically wasn’t really interested or helpful.

Holiday (and all over) social anxiety
My
social
anxiety
I’m just realizing is so severe that I genuinely get anxious and avoidant when I have to call my parents to have small talk and say “happy easter”.

Desperate for relief from social anxiety!
Hello, I’m Todd and I’m fairly certain that I have
Social
Anxiety
Disorder. I’ve lived with the
anxiety
of being around others in a
social
setting. I seem to come unraveled and haven’t been able to get myself together.
