After reading up more about these personality disorders, the explaination for Avoidant resembles me spot on. Also to think about it, I am just as worried about reactions as negative judgements. I am also very suspicious of peoples motives and have been since a fall out with a friend many...

Little sleep due to a lot on my mind, 8-5 shifts everday for the last week with all these thoughts on my mind. Haven't felt like talking to anyone at work, don't say hello or anything, they must thing I am so rude. Worried about health and general wellbeing. I dunno what to do to get out of...

Especially if it is random, or someone else is asking the question. Sunday, March 16, 2008 Malfunction of the Machina As mentioned previously, much of our energy is used scanning for potential judgements (Sensing Judgement 11/3), but this causes more problems than a simple energy drain. I find...

http://www.anxietyhelp.org/information/leibowitz.html I got 104 (53 fear and 51 avoidance). I thought that I would be in the Very Severe range =( EDIT:I did another test today (1/4/08} and got 100. Same fear, but lower avoidance. Shows that this test can vary depending on how you feel that day!

Thursday, March 13, 2008 Sensing Judgement I would like to explain another aspect of SA this evening. One of the primary fears of SA sufferers is the judgement. It is hostile, pecking away at any standing you have. We get all tense when a potential judgement could occur even if it isn't yelled...

There are a few situations 1.Sitting in the middle of a Shopping centre. I try to do it, but I always have to get up after 3 minutes, I cannot stand it. 2.If someone who I want to impress is staring at me, watching me do my job at work. I always look like a moron when they do that, especially...

I am so worried about finding a new job and meeting new people again :( There is a new manager at work, and she is a total bitch. I want to see how things pan out, but if other people I know well quit, then I may as well go. Im fairly sure most of the people I know will be gone within a month...

My family trys to get me into things occasionally. I usually say no, because I am too scared of meeting new people and creating a bad impression. One particular thing I got pushed into about a year ago was about a year ago. My uncle told me about this cricket club. I was fairly passionate and...

I keep asking him to go to the movies or something, and everytime, he says he is busy or can't be bothered. This isn't helping my social confidence at all. I keep thinking that he is betraying or doesn't like me anymore, although I have no idea of his intentions when doing this (whether his...

I have heard the cases of some other people around here, they seem slightly worse than mine. At least I could finish high school, go to work everyday, conjure energy to answer a telephone, make a speech in front of a class, go out to certain places etc. Albeit I feel very anxious whilst I am...

Hello, I have created a blog, which expresses my thoughts on this debilitation. http://sa-nexus.blogspot.com Todays blog Entry Sensationalism Today hasn't been a great day. I said something which may get me in some shit. It wasn't resent, I had to say it, or I would of missed an appointment...

Claws of the social behemoth. This is the blog of Zarrix. I intend to share my thoughts here, on varying topics, I need a place where I can express, as I find it hard to express my thoughts and emotions in the real world. You can't crack a joke to save your life, The horrors of people staring...

I hardly ever watch TV in the loungeroom, unless it is something that has been approved by the family. Im not a 10 year old, but I f I watch something they don't like Im affraid they will judge me personally. I don't want them to think Im the kind of person who watches or indulges in violence...

This is in any interaction, MSN or Face to Face. If there is silence at all, it seems to be a sign of rejection/failure. I either stay quiet and accept it as that, or say something toolish, which makes things even worse. I don't like it when people just nod, instead of saying yes. I interpret...

I have been pondering over this the last week. They know that I am not socially potent, but they have no idea about the severity of it. I told my mum that I get edgy when people giggle around me. She told me to get over it. I don't think I should, not at this stage anyway.

Do you always think its your fault? For example, if a person scheduled to work with you simply doesn't show up, do you always think its your fault. Even if they have called in sick or something, I always think they are staying at home because they hate me. If I talked to a person at school the...

In the last week, I have done so many stupid things at work it is not funny. Almost Always when someone is watching, especially this specific girl. I forget to put certain pieces in meals, or even the chips in chip packets! I forget to take my wallet and phone, and leave my gumboots on because...

I seem to get anxious around certain groups. Outgoing, vulgar adolescent males are one group, pretty woman around my age (17) are another group. Certain authortity figures, such as security guards, policemen I get very nervous around because I am paranoid that they will suspect me of doing...

For as long as I can remember, I have been a socially unwilling person. As a kid, I was the loner who sat in the corner. I had a couple of friends, but when I fell out with them, It seemed to become even worse. I moved to a new school, the people were hostile, and bullied me about my social...
