Re: Anxiety and depression

Hi,

I consider myself to be generally more socally anxious than depression. However, I have to admit that today I really feel as though depression has hit me.

I really can't trust people and I don't like being around that many people. I am very choosy about who I want to bother with for that reason. I really need friends who want to share their time with me and not because the people they really want to be with aren't available.

Do you think there are people out there that actually choose a social phobic person over a person who is not anxious?

Please reply.

Sometimes I go through high and lows, some times I am happy and 'accept' my shyness, others I get so down right depressed it is overwhelming me!
It is hard to make friends. I think you must trust your friends, and with time you will meet real great people who will actually want to hang with you.
