How come i have been on a 6 hour flight to a foreign country alone, having previously never been on a plane before o'r abroad alone yet i can't do a simple ''normal'' thing such as being social?! I have also thought about the fact that humans do probably the most dangerous thing daily i.e...

I get days where i am numb and emotionless. Today we all finished early at work for our two week Christmas holiday. Everyone else was happy and laughing, and talking to each other whereas i just stood there just staring into space. This is why i am sitting at home typing this now instead of...

The problem with facebook is that it reminds me how shitty my life is! I've deactivated my account because i'm sick of fucking people who were in school and college with me wanting to add me as a friend, people who were shitty to me. All they want is another fucking name on their list of fake...

I honestly think that having a girlfriend would be a disaster for me, the reason is my chronic insecurity. I know that i would be jealous whenever she would talk to another guy and that i would be afraid of rejection.

My feelings right now; Being in the company of people such as during lunch break at work makes me uncomfortable, i'd rather be alone. Being in the company of others gives me anxious feelings through my body such as shallow breathing, aching chest, clammy hands and feet, dizziness, racing...

I remain mysterious to my workmates at work, i mean i am pleasant to them and talk to them but i have an invisible barrier which stops me from crossing the line between 'work aqquaintance' and 'friend'. I don't know how i will stop my loneliness if i am always so distrustful of everyone. I think...

I'm a really secretive and private person, but it's mostly because i am extremely modest. For example i got a new car a few months back and i didn't tell anyone at my workplace that i'd got it, and after they noticed someone told me '' Why didn't you tell us you'd got a new car!?''....But why...

Last night i self harmed. I'd had a few to drink and i suppose i lost my rationality. I took my knife and cut my arm over and over, and i actually enjoyed seeing my blood coming out of the cuts. I'm shocked that i did it. The last time i cut myself this way was when i had anorexia at the age of...

A tip- don't post videos on youtube because there's too many cruel people who enjoy bringing people down. I've been subject to some nasty comments as well as other people. There was one girl who posted a blog on her depression and you wouldn't believe how cruel people were; Comments such as ''Go...

I don't know if i mentioned before that i had anorexia at the age of 15? Anyway i was cured of it and things have been fine, but now i'm 26 years old i'm begining to feel guilty after eating(in particular chocolate and stuff) and thoughts of starving myself are coming to my mind, in a sense...

I have this problem where i sometimes have trouble differentiating when someone is teasing me o'r are bullying me. It's hard to explain, but i guess i take things to heart too much. I take criticism really badly. I wish i could have a thick skin like some people have.

Just the way i'm feeling right now; Everyone is getting on my nerves! The people at work are so different to me, they are outgoing while i am quiet and introverted. I can't help but think that everyone hates me because everyone else are laughing and talking, having fun while i'm this quiet guy...

I hate having this avoidant personality disorder. I feel like i have missed out on having an enjoyable life. I'm virtually a recluse apart from the fact that i work full time, other than that i avoid any kind of social interaction; I even feel uncomfortable in the company of my parents, sister...

Anyone else find that people get on their nerves? Everyone gets on my nerves so much because they talk too much.

I used to be a fitness fanatic before social anxiety and depression took hold. I just have had no energy since this terrible illness has got a hold of me.

My mood is darkening by the day. I have barely spoken a word since Friday. I have no desire to initiate conversation, and i only really speak if someone asks me something, i just feel so drained of energy and i have no zest. Last night my mum and grandmother dragged me out for a meal at a local...

What kind of personality do your parents have? Do you think they are shy/social phobic? My dad is quite moody and sometimes he's really distant, he's always been this way. He's not very loving to my mum and rarely shows her affection. He'll often walk in front of my mum as if they are not...

Is it normal for a social phobic to feel guilty for spending money on extravagant things? I feel guilty whenether i have spent a lot of money on something. A while ago i purchased a car but i feel embarassed about it and that people think i am a show off. I also feel greedy and that i don't...
