Yes! I did it!! Yesterday i had the courage to join the soccer club of my university. I had to talk to the coach and i had his phone number. I was at home and i was determined to call him. But i was freaking nervous!!! i looked at the mobile for several minutes doing anything then i thought
to myself: "im gonna call him now, even if i die here of nervousness".

You cant´imagine how my hands were shaking...i picked the mobile and called him (my heart was crazy) then when i heard hello from the other side , i explained that i would want to join the club (my voice was trembling and i think he noted my anxiety, but i tried to ignore), but through the conversation i think my nervousness was disapearing slowly, i was feeling calmer and calmer gradually and near the end of it i think i was speaking with a confident voice. The coach said ok and asked me to be present in the training later on that afternoon. I agreed and finished the call. Oh man, i was so relieved and happy in the end. (i dont want to forget this moment, i think it will inspire me in the future). But a more seriously challenge awaited me, i had to go to the training in the afternoon..

When i got out from my last class i was nervous as hell. I went to the locker rooms and knocked the door. A voice said to come in and i opened the door. Oh man, the coach and half the team were there looking at me, (i was exploding!!). I explained the coach who i was and that i had called him on that morning, then with a great smile he cumplimented me and introduced me everyone there. I was nervous but feeling great. Every guy there were amazingly receptive and nice. I rembered to think to myself "if i could only had the courage to do this earlier". The training was really basic but fun and i think they were a bit impressed about my soccer qualities (i have always been complimented on that). The coach asked me to dont miss the wednesday training. In the end i was feeling as if it was the best day of my life...

Now, i firmly believe that there are no meds, no therapy, no self-help book, there are nothing that can cure our SA except for ourselves. The key is inside us. The key is the courage to do the things, even with all those symptoms. If it is painfull to you to get out of home and go to the supermarket, dont stay at home, dont avoid, do it for God sake. If its difficult to call someone for a date (this one is difficult for most people), dont even think about avoiding it, do it!!! Do the things you are affraid of and if things go wrong, persist and do it again. The nervousness will disapear gradually and you will have the feeling that you can do anything you want. That feeling is so great!!!

Lets be brave boys!!

Good luck for everyone!!
