Hi everyone,

I'm new to the site and not even sure if i have Social Anxiety or Social Phobia. Someone mentioned it to me a few days ago and before that i had never even heard of it. I can't do a lot of simple things like talk on the phone, go to the doctor, catch public transport, go grocery shopping even driving makes me nervous. I had to go to the doctor last week and i was in the car driving there and i just kept thinking that i would ram my car into a lamp post or something just so i wouldn't have to go. I'm constantly worrying about everything. My car wouldn't start the other day so instead of calling roadside to see whats wrong and get it to a mechanic i'm taking cabs to work at a cost of $40 a day just so i don't have to call and organise all that. Now i'm having anxiety that this is all not making sense and your gonna think i'm lame. The thing is i don't know why exactly i can't do these things..i just know i can't. When i was younger i was in and out of hospital for a few things and they said i had post traumatic stress and borderline personality disorder but about 3 yrs ago i went to see a psychiatrist who said i was bipolar and had ocd but nothing seemed to help me.

Hey , I can't really say that much but...


One of my good friends has OCD and he takes pills for it whenever he feels it, how he deals with it though is instead of avoiding a situation he takes a break from something thats uncomfortable, gets a drink of water or something thinks about it and comes back..

Not sure if that helps at all, but I guess just know that if you called the guys to help with your car, its your money your paying them if they make you feel bad at all you can just tell them to leave.
