I've been feeling pretty good recently, so I figured I would add some encouraging words to this often depressing message board. As you can see from my post count, i've spent a bit of time on this board. I've definitely had some low, dark periods in my life that seemed like they would continue...

I know there are a lot of negative threads on this website, so I decided to post something positive. I definitely have social anxiety. I constantly worry that what I'm saying is stupid, awkward, or creepy. But things have gotten better. I'm definitely more sociable at parties and I even managed...

Maybe this seems like it's not really an issue, but I feel like I laugh at really wierd times. Like today someone was pointing at me, like really focused point, and it kind of drew attention on me. I started cracking up. I don't know why I was laughing so much but I wish i wasn't. I feel like it...

This happened awhile ago. I was hanging out with a roommate. We were watching tv and she randomly said, "I don't know what the big deal about tom cruise is, i think you have a cute face too." She never really seemed interested before or after that. Just that one thing. What do you guys think...

I felt kind of akward with this conversation. I live in an apartment building and I was trying to meet the girls that live across the hall from me. I knocked on the door and started talking to one. Just let me know if you think if I said anything ackward during this conversation. I know feeling...

Hey guys, I know being assertive is a problem a lot of people have, even people outside of this forum. It's hard to tell when to be assertive and it's hard to hurt other people's feelings. I've always faulted myself for not doing it when I needed to and consequentially, I allowed myself to get...

I want to **** all the time. I met with my ex girlfriend today. I guess we never really broke up, but whatever. I was trying to sleep with her today but I couldn't get an erection for more than like 5 seconds at a time. i think it's because of anxiety or something about not performing well. Kind...

blah blah blah. i don't give a ****.

I was hanging out with some guys today. I've been trying to be more vocal but a lot of the time I lack confidence in what im saying. So I end up mumbeling things instead of saying something. It's just frustrating that this keeps happening. That i feel so inadequet.

I guess this isn't really anxiety, but I always feel like I'll never be happy. I'll just be depressed the rest of my life. I have so much. So many other people around me are happy. Why can't I be happy?

There's a girl I'd seen at a party a few times but I never really got to know her. I'd look at her and she'd see me but we never talked. I always felt like it was because she didnt want to talk to me. But I talked to her the other day when I saw her around school. Basically, I ended up admitting...

This girl wants to have sex with me. I really want to do it. But i'm really nervious which is going to make it hard for me to perform. Any suggestions for reducing anxiety in this situation.

I feel like I have a lot of trouble getting to know people because I can't think of things to say to them. LIke, Most of what I say and ask people is informative, as in giving people information. I feel like my friends who have less trouble with conversations have more free flowing...

I'll try to keep this short so people will read it. I'm pretty upset about what happened tonight. I went to a bar with some friends and played in a pool tournament. I was playing the final match to decide who won the tournament and I overheard the guy I was playing trash talking about me to...

I feel like I have a lot ideas for things to say to people, but it seems like whenever i talk to someone, I end up interviewing them instead of having a conversation. It goes like this, I ask them a question, they answer it, Imake a comment. Then I move on to the next topic. I guess I kind of...
