In reply to Social Anxiety: HELP PLEASE!!, posted by Psycho D on August 29, 2003, at 2:15:38
Psycho D,marip, panic attack, I feel the same way! I had bad social problems, then turned to drugs, ect.... same story really, crashed and burned! I just feel very lonely, Ive pushed a lot of people away when I was bad with anxiety because they just didnt understand or want to understand me. Im feeling better these days, mostly due to TCA's, SSRI's didnt agree with me. It does take time to overcome the anxiety, well it took me a year to be able to go out again! I still feel like many of you described in social situations. You just have to take small steps, and have people around you who are willing to talk and undersand your feelings, believe me that will help! good luck all of you!!!
Psycho D, I dont know if this is how you feel but, like you I feel I give to much of myself to people, and then worry that they wont feel about me, as I do about them. I have had friends who just dont contact me anymore when I cant face going out, and its really upsetting. steer clear of those types!
