Hi, I'm new here. I was diagnosed with social phobia when I was 13 after some panic attacks and hysterical fits at school. I consider myself to be pretty much "over it" I'm no longer on medication, infact now that I'm an adult I'm rather outgoing. Sometimes I still get the physical symptoms of anxiety before I go out, or when I'm in a new situation, which once I identify I usually just have a smoke and relax. There is one situation in which I can't seem to get over unless I'm intoxicated or barely conscious. Its during sex, I'm worried so much that I can't enjoy it, I put it off ("Uhh... I have a headache?") and I try to find ways to rush it and get it over asap. It really has a negative on my relationships. Does anyone else experience this? How do you deal with it?
