(Read to the end of post) I was out with some friends when we ended up all being in a room and at that time my anxiety was about an 8 on a 10 scale. Since we were all there all my friends decided to talk about why I was quiet,.... it was the most embarresing emotional ride I ever went through...

The game goes like this picture me sitting at a table there is 3 other people including me. One person to each side of the table and the 3 other people are having a conversation between themselves and I'm being quiet during the whole conversation. Your job is to make me believe my ants thoughts...

We all know people have flaws to them which could be bad personalities, bad habits, scars, and many more things. If I asked you to name a person that didn't have flaws you would probably have a very short list or no list at all. Even celebrities have flaws, models, and high society people. So...

If you understand my last post you probably asked yourself o.k. I understand why I get anxiety in many situations in my life but why am I still the same person I can't talk to people and I can't socialize what's the point of knowing this? The point of knowing this is to let you get on the right...

Inside each and every single one of us we are all hiding a truth and when I say every single one of us i mean those with social phobia. The truth is burried inside of us because were afraid of what it can lead us to and that is ourselves. I don't know how many of us can remember our past but...

My goal is to talk to everybody ...its going to be wierd because I don't know where my relationship status is with every one so I cant be talking to them like everything is alright right? and I haven't socialized in a while so I'll probably come of as strange, but I want to see how bad rejection...

Sometimes I get asked why I don't talk and now with my progress going on with my social anxiety I know for a fact people are going to ask me why I didn't! talk I was thinking of telling them that I was just bored or was in a bad mood when I was with them. Any suggestions to my situation, how...

Talking is not even close to what I experienced.

When I didn't know I had social anxiety I thought I was like everybody else but for some reason I thought that other people handled it better than I did so I was always trying to put myself in social situations to make myself more confident in being social but now I know that was a mistake...

Today I was hanging out with two of my friends and I felt a little anxiety at first because the last time I was with them I was pretty quiet and for some reason I thought they were going to bring that up but lucky for me they didn't, anyways I spent about three hours with them and for those...

I want to start this post to let people express the negative thoughts anyone has about themselves in any given day and maybe even have someone else who realizes that these thoughts aren't realistic to tell them they are over reacting or maybe give some advice on how to help out in their...

I want to share with you how I got to my breakthrough because it really worked for me but if you read my last post you know why SA still affects me. To tell you the truth I was smoking weed and I hit the highest point of my anxiety when I smoke because it makes me feel more intune with my...

One thing I always have thoughts about is what i'm going to tell everbody what I was going through. There was this one time where I had a breakthrough and I started to talk to a stranger which was a big step because I was going through some anxiety but after I started talking it felt like the...
