    Some feelings.....is this normal for SAD?

    I've pretty much been getting worse and worse anxiety as soon as I got to college....and it kind of is at a climax this year (junior year) where I have a single dorm and can literally be alone as long as I want to. Sometimes I'm literally afraid to leave my room to go to bathroom down the hall...

    I've got the hots for my friend....Advice please!

    Just wanted to get some advice about how to deal with this gal who I've been friends with for the past year or two. She's a really cute little asian gal (Amy) who's bisexual, although I've never heard of her having been with women so I'm assuming she's more into men. Here's a timeline of events...

    Forced to go to museum tomorrow.

    I don't have SA as bad as some folks here, but I do have it......and I'm in for some "fun" tomorrow when I'm being dragged off to some museum in DC with my family. I'm on break from college and yet I still can't avoid these "family activities" which seem to always be activities that I dread...

    What's the deal with the chatroom?

    I decided to come back to the chatroom to hang out and see what's going on, and I get some kind of message saying I'm G-Lined? First of all what is that? I tried going to some spanish site and entering some codes, but it acted like they didn't match. I don't know why this is happening....I...

    Weird feeling in my face in public?

    I'm pretty sure I've got SA, checking OCD, and BDD, so I dunno which of these is causing which symptoms, but I wanted to finally ask around about what I've been feeling in my facial area recently. Basically if you've ever felt Restless Leg Syndrome, the feeling of restlessness or tingling or...

    I feel like I'm going insane......

    I go through these cycles of hypomania where I'm literally obsessed with learning more about myself and what's wrong with me. It started with me finding out my excessive sweating was a condition called axillary hyperhidrosis. Years later I start to think I'm too shy and then I find out about SA...

    Some quick advice...

    Hey guys, just wanted to share something I always keep in mind that helps me with my SA and other problems. If you have SA and aren't being treated, or the treatment isn't working.....think about your life down the road....lets say to a time when your SA is a thing of the past....when it's...

    New AIM SAD chatroom

    Hey all. I figured I'd have a lot more fun at work if I had some kind of chatroom to hang out in, and I figured that a lot of us probably work in the mornings (meaning sit at computers and surf the web while talking to friends on aim, lol). Anyways I made a chatroom called SocialPhobiaWorld on...

    How do I get help?

    I have like a month left of summer before I go back to college. I have axillary hyperhidrosis for sure, I'm very certain I have SAD, and unsure about mild OCD and AvPD. My parents have no idea about these things, but I've had problems in the past with them telling me I'm just overreacting about...

    Possibility that it's the caffeine?

    Has anyone had experiences with larger-than-average sized doses of caffeine at fairly regular intervals? I feel like all my SA problems started (or, at least, I noticed them) once I started college and moved from a big soda-drinker into popping a 200mg caffeine pill upon waking up. I'd take the...

    Is it me or my parents?

    I'm 19/M, going into sophmore year of college, currently working a full-time job for the summer and living with parents. I can't exactly classify my parents into a type, but they strike me as the authoritarian type because of the way I turned out. I was adopted as a baby and somewhere along the...

    New guy here, Opinions/Diagnoses please! Hybrid HH/SA/OCD?

    Hey, I'm Brandon from Maryland. I'm 19 and am going to be a sophmore in college this year. I'm majoring in neuroscience/philosophy. Anyways, I tend to go on too long in these kinds of posts, so I'll try to make it brief. I am going to list the things in my life that don't seem "right" or...
