    I need help

    Hi all! I'm an old member of this forum, visiting it once in a while. Over the past few years, my "progress" in beating SA has been kind of exponential, i.e. more risk taking, more "seeing that this fear is usually BS", and so on. So on Wednesday I reached the point where going out with...

    Motivation

    Thread for the Courageous - a game/competition

    Ok, so I'm about to do a scary thing. The idea about it has been on my mind for a few weeks, or even longer: to "break the ice" with a colleague who I have to talk to anyway on an almost daily basis. The point is I feel uncomfortable when talking to him, I'm afraid he thinks I'm weird or...

    Something that might get you started on your way of improving...

Anyway, thought I'd share my good experiences that happened today. I went to town with a few buddies and we did some pick-up (i.e. talking...

    What do you think about _this problem_?

    Hello, everyone! I'm a new guy, aged 22. Short introduction: Started to feel SA at about the age of 14 (walking on the street was hugely nerve-wrecking), played MMORPGs during high school and first half of college instead of going out (don't do it, even I managed to nearly completely quit a year...
