    Hallo, Mr/Mrs SPW Webmaster, are you there?

    Hello, Can anyone tell me how can I contact (bilaterally :? ) the SPW Webmaster? The email way doesn't work in this case, for some reason. Cheers.

    Afraid of being "unmasked" on the internet

    Hello people, :) I'd like to ask if you're afraid of the possibilty of being unmasked on the net - that someone could find out that you are you, and that you have such problems etc. It's pretty upsetting. :? I'm afraid so much, that I quite often change my nicks on the forums where I write. I...

    Is it possible to definitely get rid of the SA altogether?

    Hi all, :) Is here anybody who has got rid of the social anxiety definitely? Really definitely - so, that for example really no SA symptoms have appeared for a year or two? Or more? :?: :?: Is it altogether possible? Maybe we have to be socially anxious for the whole life?! And only some...

    I envy others that they have better (generally) than me!

    Hello, I've recently found out all the reasons of the fact I can make new relationships so difficult. As I've written on the Avoidant Personality forum, it's pretty hard for me to do it even in the net (anywhere). :roll: Following are my 3 general reasons for such an attitude: - I simply have...

    Is there a correlation between depression & SA and what?

    Hi all, I wonder if there's a correlation between depression & SA. I don't know - I've had the depressive statuses (stati? - I don't know which form is correct... :lol: and if this word is proper) some time ago; now it's better. The phobia has been lightening already when the depression was...

    I don't get any answer from the SPW webmaster - is it normal

    :?: Hi, I'd like to find out if you also never get an answer from the Webmaster of SPW, despite of having sent them some questions. I have sent them to them, but no answer reached at me. It's a bit strange. Is there any other way to contact them? Cheers to you! :)

    Paroxetine - all the truth about famous Paxil/Seroxat

    Hi people, :) I've been thinking about taking paroxetine for my phobia in future maybe (now my anxiety seems to be quite lighter, as I've somewhere written, but it's an unpredictable phobia). It's thought to be an excellent cure for it. At least I've heard such opinions. But I've also found...

    Too quiet speaking to other people?

    Hi, :D Are you also asked to repeat what you've just said, due to too quiet speaking? :?: I have sometimes the feeling I'm either ignored or not loudly speaking, so that other people either don't pay attention to my words or simply don't hear them... :? It's pretty embarrassing. I've a...

    Today my phobia sympthoms're pretty lighter (almost none) :)

    Hi, :) I see that my social anxiety has recently been getting lighter. I noticed today almost no visible sympthoms of SA at me when out of home; it was completely passable. Obviously, the interior anxiety was still present at me, but I could totally control it, so that no anxiety could be seen...

    How did you find out you've the social phobia?

    Hi people, :) How did you find out you've the social phobia? :?: At me, it was that I'd seeked informations about erythrophobia (blushing) which have been also some problem for me (although not the hardest). I had firstly supposed it might be related to some OCD disorder. And I've found out...

    Do we all have something attention-attracting in ourselves?

    Hi, It may seem as some paranoidal thought, but I think that we, as the social phobics, have in ourselves or in our appearance or something, something what attracts other people's attention. It is no good thing, I think. Do you also think similarly, or maybe I'm just oversensitive? :?: It...

    I consider studying at a medical academy; does it make sense

    Hi, :) I've been considering if it'd be good to go to the medicine-related studies. I know it's hard even for the "normal" people, but it refers to my education opportunities, you know. And it's the reason of my topic: does it make any sense and can I manage it? :?: Especially, the...

    Let's VOTE! How easy/hard do you make new relationships?

    Let's compare our difficulties related to making new relationships with others. It's obvious that it's hard for the SA-ers; and if you additionally have the avoidant personality (I suppose I have it, or it seems so) and disthymical/depressive inclinations (I suppose it as well), then your...

    Why are the obscene ads and topics tolerated here??

    It's so embarrassing and astonishing, that here are quite often publiced such obscene ads/posts as "free porn", "porn with Britney" or such encouraging to enlarge some organ... Does anybody control this site or rather not? :?: :?: It's disconcerting! :? And how they can post the topics as...

    Do you have less perceptivity than you should?

    Hi, I have too less perceptivity than I should. It's not only my fantasy, it'd gone out of some intelligence test which I've made some time ago at the psychologist's. It was the only thing which was under the norm there, and rather strongly... :? And factually, I sometimes don't notice some...

    Important! How to make your phobic life more pleasant

    Hi people, I decided to make this topic, because it's pretty important case, I think. Do you also have that horrible feeling that your life is so empty, so inessential? That your actions are banal and it's boring, simply saying? Or maybe only I or similar people have it, as some...

    Going to a water park under the influence of xanax

    Hi, I have an idea, don't know if it's completely stupid or only a bit, but what - forum is for the asking. So, what do you think about swimming - or rather bathing, I can't swim actually - in the water park under benzodiazepine (xanax exactly) influence? I so like contact with water! Or maybe...

    What about increasing the number of "Last Messages&quot

    I have thought about this question a moment ago. It's directed to the Admin or anybody who is responsible for this website. It's only a suggestion, to increase their number to 20. It would be good, I think, because the rush on SPW is quite big and new posts quite quickly disappear from the...

    Among the peers - what a discomfort for the phobics!

    Hi, I feel uncomfortable among my peers, do you have the same? It's horrible thing, especially in the teen age; but being, chattering and fooling around with others is normal thing for average teens, even it's some kind of need, don't you think so? And what an irony, that the normal nice joy...
