What's the right syntax to post a link with anchor text?
I work from home and play LOTRO among other games, because of my social anxiety. Therefore, I...
I think that Lucid Dreaming would be a great way of desensitizing yourself from your fears. I used to practice Lucid Dreaming, but gave it up awhile ago, because it's a lot of work to be able to induce lucid dreams. Imagine how powerful it would be to put yourself in fearful situation and...
Like when going to the store and you are in line and then you have to give payment?
Anyone have a lot of muscle tension as one of their main social anxiety symptoms?
Ok I know this woman and I am attracted to her and I think she knows it. I told her I liked her hair(trying to be polite and start conversation) and she kind of mumbled out "thanks". I wasn't looking at her at the time though. My back was to her, so I didn't see her body language. She's...
Anyone else with this problem? Math test anxiety?
Couldn't even do one problem. It all looked like Greek to me and I was so tense that I couldn't think straight! I know they were easy problems that were from the homework though and if I was doing the test at home I would be fine. Actually...
One of the therapists I saw recommended it and it has a lot of good advice. You might want to check it out. You have to do the exercises in the book for it to work though and be religious about it. In the past, when it was recommended to me, I just didn't want to spend the time doing the...
Is that a sign she likes you or just can't stand you? This has happened at school(college) with a few women that I like and I feel that they might like me. One of them doesn't talk much to anyone in class(except her friend that sits next to her), but sometimes when I ask a question in class...
I mean doing relaxation and imagining yourself in anxiety provoking situation. The idea is that the relaxation and imagining yourself in an anxiety provoking situation will condition a response that will make you relaxed in real life(when you really are in the situation and not imagiing it)...
Ok, I have social anxiety and have had it for awhile. Xanax XR is helping me deal with it. I'm working on a Computer Science degree which requires a lot of math. I really have never liked math, but I have to take it and I am experiencing a lot of anxiety during tests. I can do the problems...
Yes or No? I have tried both, but I have never given much effort. I am really tired of this though and I am serious now about putting some effort into some non drug therapy. Anyone have luck with CBT or some other type of therapy?
Xanax XR is working great for me, but I want to give some therapy another shot. I have been to a lot of psychotherapists over the years, but either they sucked and tried to be a "counselor" or I didn't really do the homework 100 percent or even close. I'm at a point in my life where I'm really...
After having SA for a decade, the only drugs that helped me at all are benzos. I tried all the SSRI's and other drugs multiple times and they did nothing. Klonopin allowed me to function for a limited time around a limited number of people, but it wasn't enough. About a year ago, after my...
I'm glad I found this site. I've had SA for about a decade now and it has dramatically altered my life. After trying a lot of meds and stuff(I never gave therapy a disciplined shot though), I finally found something that allows me to function like most people. Xanax XR. I'm 29 now and back...
