old feelings

Well today as with yesterday at work I took a forklift course. Its 2 days long and yesterday was like a classroom style learning thing. I felt very anxious like I do when I'm at school. the problem is I thought maybe this year when I go back I won't be so anxious and nervous because working and being around people all day isn't as bad as it used to be. But once I got into that room all the old feelings I had came back. It was 4 hours long and we pretty much watched really stupid movies so it wasn't like you had to talk a lot. Today was a little better because we weren't in the damn 'class room'.

The fact that my feelings haven't changed if I go into a class room is really going to be a bitch when I go back to school in September. I thought maybe it wouldn't be as bad since i started working. What am I to do? :?

Just concentrate on what you are going to be learning, it won't be as bad as you think.

both actually

Its cool that your pushing yourself to be productive and not giving up like alot of social phobics do.. If your trying to relieve your anxiety by pushingyourself into the real world, thats a big step in the right direction. Exposure is prbly the most important step.. ive also found a few meds to be very helpfull. There are deff people that dont react well but if it works with ur brain chem, you wont believe the relief you feel. If you haven't triedany, i would deff give it a shot... just my opinion Gl with the job
