This is ridiculous!! :evil: :evil: RPG games which I've been waiting ages to come out just keep getting put back further and further and further........ I've been waiting for Kingdom Hearts 2 to come out for nearly 2 years now, and it's already out in some parts of the world. Now it looks as...

It's a subject that has interested me for ages. One of my favourite programmes is Most Haunted. Although I've never actually seen one (and I wouldn't want to see one while alone!), I do believe in ghosts. What does everyone else think, and have you seen any?

I'm in a large group at work, and they've decided to go on a night out in a few weeks time. :( I'm adamant that I don't want to go- I'm not ready to tackle a level 10 anxiety situation like that, and I don't think I would like to even if I was free of SP. My question is how I should decline...

Like most other people on this site, I'm extremely self conscious and paranoid that everyone else monitors everything I do. While I was on holiday last month, I went to a local restaurant. I went early to ensure that it wasn't that busy. On the last bite of my main meal (by this time it was...

Can anyone help? I have been meaning to do it for sometime, but I haven't a clue how to alter/ resize the image I want to use. I know its been covered on this website before, but I can't find it anywhere.

It's been hot in the UK these last 2 days (well in the South anyway). These last 2 days at work have gone badly for me. Most of the day I couldn't cool down at all, my mind have been plagued by racing and reoccuring thoughts, and I've to started to double check what work I've done, and still...

Well I've got a couple: Charity street collectors- sometimes when I'm shopping, getting across from one part of town to another is like crossing a minefield. I know that they're all worthwhile charities, but for someone with SP, its hard trying to be assertive and saying no to them- its not as...

Had a day off from work yesterday, so I got the train and decided to visit a new city. I was on my way back to catch the train home, and took what I thought was a short cut. Within 15mins or so, I was completely lost. As I got more and more anxious, I became more and more convinced that everyone...

It really does demoralise me, how in my mind, I can never get used to being in certain situations despite going through them over and over again. Arriving at work every day, I still get anxious, even though I've done it for years. Going out shopping, I'm a bundle of nerves. What's even more...

I don't think I have anyone that I can share my everyday problems with (including problems that are not social anxiety related). I've never got along with my sibling, and now that we are adults, we are about as close as the UK is to New Zealand. My mum also told me, when I was growing up, not...

I don't know about everyone else, but when I'm buying simple stuff e.g. t-shirt, shoes, I get so indecisive over making my choice. Its almost as if I'm looking for the 'perfect' choice of item in my mind and get very bogged down with the choice on offer. This week, I've been trying to buy myself...

My worst day of the week is Sunday. Even though its a day off for me, I find it very hard to enjoy the day. I always start worrying in advance of what the week at work might hold for me. The thought of having to put my mind and body through another 5 days of anxiety ridden experiences drains...

Hello everyone, You may recall that I wanted some advice a good few weeks ago now, regarding whether to post a letter to a girl I see at rugby matches who maintains a good amount of eye contact at me. (Subject- Is this socially acceptable or just mad?) Thanks to everyone who replied. Well the...

Hello everyone, I'm in desperate need of some advice. I've been crazy about someone for months now. We only see one another at rugby matches. She always checks to see whether I'm there, and maintains regular eye contact particularly when our team scores or performs a good move. Whenever we end...

Went to the cinema last night on my own. It was warm in there, and within moments of taking a seat, I could feel beads of sweat going down my face. It made my anxiety worse as I was convinced people might notice even though the lights were dim. My face was rigidly glued to the screen as I was...

I've lost count of the amount of times I've just wanted to rewind the clock and start my childhood again, so that I could claim back all the 'normal' experiences and opportunities everyone goes through when they're growing up. Sometimes, I just want to pack everything up and move to a...

I hate buying XMAS presents as I find it so depressing. It reminds me how much social phobia has taken over my life because I hardly bother with people, and I literally have only 1 or 2 presents to buy. A few years ago when I had my family to support me, I had plenty to buy, but as the years...

I've lost count of the amount of times I find myself having a conversation with someone, and then moments into the conversation I 'realise' what I'm doing, and then start paniking, feeling very uncomfortable and making that other person uncomfortable. It's so frustrating at times. I wish I...

I'm now determined to try an audio series after having tried and failed with other solutions in the past. I've come across 3 possible ones so far: Overcoming Social Anxiety by Dr Richards Personal Power 2 by Anthony Robbins Freedomfromphobias.com CD Has anyone tried any of these, or can...

I've had a really rubbish week at work where I've just wanted to quit even more than usual. One of the few things that has been keeping me 'going' is a local rugby match to look forward to today. Anyway, I was on my way to the ground when one of my work colleagues caught me from behind. He asked...
