Sometimes I find that when I fall asleep I have dreams and in them I don't have SA/SP and I am perfectly normal! 😀 I've had quite a few dreams where I've found myself in all kinds of public and social situations. In one dream I found myself at a train station ready to get on a train completely on my own and I didn't feel anxious at all I was completely relaxed! Now in real life there is no way in hell I could do that on my own. In another one I found myself dancing and partying at a nightclub in London! :lol: Again I didn't have Socialphobia and was chatting to people and strangers I didn't know and having a really good time 🙂 And in another one I found myself up in town shopping on my own. Again I was completely socialphobia free 🙂 Now in real life I couldn't go shopping on my own as I couldn't face the crowd of shoppers by myself. I feel quite depressed when I wake up and realize that it was just a dream and I still have socialphobia and there is no way that I could do any of those things 🙁 Does anyone else have dreams where they find that they don't have Socialphobia and can do things that non socialphobics take for granted?
Sadly my dreams don't take me beyond social phobia.
Its mad; I'm running around being chased by giant goblins breathing fire and chucking axes at my head but I still get nervous at the thought of screaming for help.
I like this topic... when I have dreams, they're actually usually me with worse SA than I have now, strangely 8O One was a dream of the first day of school (for some reason our school was in the country, but that's beside the point), and I was having an anxiety attack because there was one person I didn't know. I'm not that bad right now, but that dream definitely wasn't comforting.
Once I had a dream that I was on a reality TV show (kind of like The Apprentice) and I got kicked out cuz I didn't talk enough; haha.
I know just what you mean when you say you wake up feeling depressed because it was just a dream. That happens to me a lot, but usually it's because I'm at an empty amusement park with just my close friends, or I have the power to freeze time, not because I don't have SA.

:lol:
Insane!
Im chased by a big boob in mine.
I'm chased by everybody in mine!
I'm not kidding, and i also can fly somehow, but people can't.
though, there is some problems with the flying system because i fall on the ground many times and people are like five meters away from me, but i refly away from them each time! :lol:
It always ends when they catch me, i wake up right after the first one puts his hand on me. Not fair I guess!! 8)
I have anxiety dreams but strangely I have never been socially phobic in them :? I've never really thought about that until now. Usually although there may be a stressful thing going on or i am uncertain or frustrated, I am much more confident within myself or with other people.
I'm always SA in my dreams now, and invariably they just feel like an extension of my life.
I remember in one of my earliest SA dreams I had to interview Geoffrey Boycott in my back garden, for some unknown reason. I was really nervous whilst doing the interview and that made him all nervous too. It sucked big style. Why can't I have dreams about being chased by giant boobs? No not me, I get bloody Geoffrey Boycott.....mind you, it's nearly the same thing.
