Especially in the past few weeks I've been shocked with horror whenever I saw my reflection in the mirror. How can you love yourself, and get rid of social anxiety, when you're convinced that you're butt ugly? The funny thing is that when I feel good, I sometimes find myself good-looking :roll:

Is it worth buying their therapy programs? http://www.socialanxietyinstitute.org/

It would be interesting if people told their age, and their view of sex. Since I haven't experienced it, I can't say anyhting.

I'd like to know if there are antidepressants without any sexual side effects?? Thanks in advance..

I think I found the main cause of my social anxiety! I find myself ugly, period. But what now? I can't change my face..

I think I'm involuntary antisocial. Throughout my life, I hardly ever invited any of my friends (when I had them) to hang out or do something together. I was always the one who was asked by others to go somewhere or do something together. I never initiated anything, and here I am now; lonely and...

I'm officially a 32 year old virgin today, you can't imagine how happy I am!

The sound I hate most is people coughing. I always assume that I made them feel uncomfortable. It always terrifies me when someone coughs in my presence. How absurd is it that I fear this so much? :?

My biggest problem is that my mind is always focused on acting normal. It's sapping all my energy, and yet, despite all my efforts, I can't act normal. I inevitably feel anxious and abnormal and strange. I can't think of one thing to say when I find myself in such situations (which happens all...

Do those of you who don't have a relationship also feel that the most devastating aspect of not having a relationship with the opposite sex, is the lack of emotional intimacy??? Someone you can share your feelings with, someone you always feel comfortable around, and be yourself with...

The main reason for me being single (love-shy) is that I feel I have absolutely nothing to offer people. I feel like I don't deserve a relationship, since I'm socially inept. Why on earth would any woman want to marry someone like me? And this also applies to having friends; why would anyone...

I have a question to older folks here who are single and never experienced love and intimacy with the opposite sex. Does it become more bearable with age in your experience? How do you deal with regrets?

What do you think - could it be that shyness is in reality pride in disguise?

LOL

My desire for the opposite sex is decreasing as each day passes. I believe with age comes a sense of peace and calm. I think it's possible to be happy without being in a relationship. You just have to focus on other things in life - there is so much more to life than the opposite sex. I'm really...

When I try to be myself, I'm overwhelmed by anxiety and feelings of inferiority. But when I hide my "true self", which I always do, I live perpetually depressed... I'm lost.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately. About the future.. and it terrifies me. How am I supposed to create some form of social life when almost all my relatives, acquaintances and friends are married and have kids? I know they think I'm a loser (I am), and I expect them to reject me, if I...

I don't like to talk, not even to my parents. There are only a few things I enjoy doing in life, such as working out and reading books. How can you make friends, or find a partner when you have this type of personality.. or be succesful in your career?

I'm a pathetic human being. I sometimes hug my blanket and imagine it to be the woman I love :(
