I've always felt very uncomfortable hearing other people have sex. My whole body freezes and my heart thumps really hard in my chest. I just want it to stop. Even the slightest bumping, squeaking or the music playing to drown out the sound horrifies me. I don't find sex disgusting. I...

Is anyone interested in fashion? Or doing a fashion design course? Or working in the fashion industry? Right now I'm on a fashion design course in London. I haven't had any replies yet so I'll ask another question, how do you feel about fashion? I personally find it very intimidating however...

Finding true friendship is hard. I'm twenty-one and I found him almost two years ago. I think I was very lucky. It was completely unexpected and happened when I was feeling very, very low. At my worst. Having a true friendship means that you care for the other person. Both of you get along...

I spoke to my GP about shaking and head tremors whenever I felt anxious or in a large room of people. He prescribed an Ibuprofen gel to rub into the back of my neck to relax the muscles however I really did not want that. He didn't seem to understand that my tremors were brought on by anxiety...

A lot has happened in my life in a year. I'm better and so much happier. I feel more confident about starting university this September but a big part of me is still the same as before. The things that I can't explain very well and seem to be unable to control. College was awful for me and I...

I feel like I need to talk to people, even meet up. This might be a really, really bad idea but I'm thinking right now, whatever... So obviously talking through MSN is the first thing. It's difficult to find someone you can get along with but I've found out that it can happen just like that, out...

My friend and I have talked everyday since we met online by MSN, messages and text. It's been over two months. We get along well. We met up this week for the first time and it was hell, he said. The start was alright, we were bound to be awkward right? Except it didn't get better for me. I'm not...

Has anyone met up with other SPW members in the UK? What's your experience?

Does anyone live in London or any other big cities? I just have in my mind the idea that if you're living in a busy place then you can merge in with the crowd. Whenever I go to London I feel like I'm part of the busy lifestyle, no one will stop and stare at you. Whereas when you're in a small...

Is anybody here a fan? I would love to talk about him with others as I have no one to do that with in person. Please feel free to post or email me. :) Has absolutley no one heard of him.....? He's a Japanese singer/songwriter/composer.

I'm right at the first stage of getting help, I'm going to see a counsellor. However I'm not completely sure how this is going to work and if it will have any effects on my anxiety. I realise this will be long-term and will have to work hard on my part as well but when is the point when...

I'll be starting college again very soon. I'm a little excited but also dreading it at the same time. I haven't made any friends at all. There are just a few people who know my name who I may say 'hello' to occasionally. I'm a loner and absolutley hate break, lunchtimes and free periods when I...

I've been visiting this forum over the past couple of weeks as a guest. The forum has been comforting to me and sometimes a little depressing too but I've decided to join anyway. I have not been diagnosed with anything yet however I finally took the step to see a GP to arrange a meeting with a...
