I can't really explain it, but sometimes I feel the impulse to respond to threads that are titled with a question with what is probably the worst possible answer before reading the thread. For instance: "Has anyone ever..." Answer: Nope. Just you. "Did I do the wrong thing when..." Answer...

So, SA has been a pretty big part of my life and so has my battle with depression, but I've got another thing I would love to talk about with other people who live with it: ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. I understand that ADHD does not have the same connection with SA as...

But, I don't have many other avenues to do this sort of thing. I have a quick one-question survey that I need to get some data on. If you have a sec, please post your answer to the question in a reply. The question is: "What's your favorite food?" And........GO!

So, I've seen lot's of diary threads on here. I guess this is one of those. I know I said "dairy." I said "dairy" because it made me giggle. Heh... So where do I go from here? I'm creating this for a reason...I want to say something...but what? I don't want to say too much...but what is "too...

Alright. So, regardless of whether you agree with me about the existence of "video game addiction," I think I suffer from it as an addiction. I'm not looking for an argument, but rather suggestions. I have found that the unreasonable amount of time I spend gaming severely impacts my quality of...

At this moment, I noticed that we have 10 active members on the site. It's a small number, but it's one or two more than I'm used to seeing. Nevertheless, there have been maybe two posts in the last hour, and one of them was from me. If you guys are here, you're not doing much to show it! In...

In looking at my post history, I realized that before my recent stint in activity, the last time I was posting in these forums was 2010. Wow. I think that merits an introduction. I'm zharl. I'm currently doing student teaching and am getting ready to enter the teaching profession. The last few...

I warned you. XD BASICALLY, I wanted to express how easily I am amused. I saw on the spw homepage, "Avoidant Personality Forum" and then the most recent post was "Should I give it a try?" For some reason, this just caused me to chuckle, since the statement seemed soooooo nonsensical...

I've had my SA under control pretty well for a while...but I've had an odd reaction tonight. My step-dad has a friend over with his two young children...and I just don't like them...ALL of them. I've been very polite, so I'm pretty sure they don't know a thing, but for some reason I don't trust...

I remember when I first came to spw...wow, I just said spew out loud to myself XD..anyway, I remember when I first showed up, I made an account, and hopped into the chatbox, discussing a topic that was at the very bottom, which was, at the point I joined in, completely out of context. Naturally...

Hello everyone, I'm...er...zharl I guess. XD I've been discussing an idea I've had with a few of our members in the chatbox on how to get our little community to be a little more interconnected. Now I'm rather new here, so I'm not quite sure how to get this idea afloat, but let me lay it out...

I'm nineteen and I'm just about finished with my first year at college, and I've been summoned for Jury Duty. I'm absolutely terrified. I was finally getting settled with myself, settled with my anxiety, but now I've exploded like a powder keg. I'm a sheltered, suburban neophyte...I have no...

After waiting a day, my account was confirmed, but now I really don't know what to do... It's great to find a site like this dedicated entirely to social anxiety, but what is it really for? Do I ask questions? Do I give answers? Do I engage in philosophical discussion? Do I simply shoot the...
