Social anxiety has affected me in different ways but the worst has to be in being able to make friends. I don't have any friends right now, yea I hang out once in a full moon with a few 'acquaintances' but there is no one I can talk to about good/bad things in my life. I hate it! Since I was little I have had a hard time talking to people. In elementary school, I had no friends, whose houses I went over to, just a few classmates that I would talk to during school. Middle school was ok for me. I met a few introverts like myself that I hung out with in school and once in a while outside of school. But after those 2 years in middle school came high school and most of them went to different schools. I didn't go to the one I was suppose to go to (Because my overprotective mother thought it was a bad high school and made me apply to another smaller one) and was accepted to a diff one for "gifted" students. I made no friends there. I would go to school and then home. Never had a bf, friend, nothing. Senior year we moved houses and I went to a different high school. That was a bad year. During lunch, I would go to the bathroom, after eating, and sit in the stall waiting for it to be time to go back to class.
