Hi all,
I'm so glad I found this forum. I've kinda been lurking around here for a while and I finally decided to post. Well first of all I am 18 and lets see I have never been to a doctor or anything about my problems but I know that I definitely have social anxiety.
First of all it all started when I was 15 and I just started losing friends and everything. I became very withdrawn from everything and then I left school. Now what is really dissapointing is that I use to be an academically bright student. Had I been at school and finished year 12 this year I probably would be in Uni right now. My life has really been messed up because of my fear of social situations. I hate it and now that I am 18, I just really want to get over it. It has ruined my life. I can't stand it and what it has done to me.
I have not left my house basically for 3 years now !!! I have turned against all my friends and everything. They don't even bother talking to me anymore. I never see them anymore or go out. I have only perhaps gone out maybe 3 or 4 times the past few years. I hate going shopping and all that and going out all together. I can't stand it. So right now I currently have no friends and life sucks. I tried getting a job and everything. But you know what I just become all nervous and freak out. I fear that I am turning out to be very agrophobic and I would hate that.
You see I use to be normal and outgoing but then all of a sudden a lot of things started going wrong in my life and now I have become completely anti-social. Anyway, I just want to know if anyone is similar to me.
Has anyone else spent long periods of time away from the world?
Three years has been a really long time now and I am seriously becoming very depressed and suicidal now. I hate my life. I really hate this fear and I realise I'm gonna have to get a life and a job and everything sometime soon. I really want to change and I hate being like this. I hate myself right now and this problem that I have.
Anyway, yeah thats just my story. Sorry for long post.
