Hello,

My name is Peter. I am 19 years old.

I noticed, that 1 year ago I started to hate social meetings and all social situations with people I don't know. I feel something bad inside me (where's heart, but a little bit more to the right, in the middle) , I don't know how to describe it, maybe adrenaline, I don't know. Whatever, it feels bad. I am nervous and sometimes I can't concentrate on my work because of that.

Maybe I am scared that I will be left alone in that coming social event. Maybe I am scared that other people would see me as freak. I don't know. I've been always an introvert, I don't like to meet strange people and I don't know what to say to them, but I am very talkative with people I know. However, even with people I know I don't like to spend much time doing nothing, just talking and I don't feel anything bad when people I know invite me somewhere. I don't understand usually people who talk about "nothing". I hope you understand what I mean.

I am an atheist and I think that everything is in our brains. So, I am sure I can cure myself and don't feel that stupid "energy" in the middle of me. By the way, I don't feel that energy when I finally in that social event, but still I feel bad. When event is finished, I feel so relieved. I don't want to take drugs and go to the psychologists, I want to try to cure myself first and I am sure I will be able to do that.

So, maybe you can give me links to good articles about this disease, about treatment andso on? :) I will be very grateful. Thank you for your attention and sorry for my English.

Hey dawg,

I think you're right - it seems like your social phobia is mild enough that you can cure yourself and don't need drugs or psychologists.

Lucky for you (too), is that I know some things that can help you do just this. These things have worked wonders for me and I know they'll work great for you too (if you do them properly) and most likely cure your problem.

Read these and get from them their various techniques and knowledge about dealing with social phobia (some of the best stuff I have found about curing social phobia :)):

REBT is also very effective for social phobia:

What is Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy (REBT)? - REBT Network: Albert Ellis | Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy

Hypnotherapy and EFT are by far the best techniques that I have found in dealing with social phobia:
YouTube - ‪How Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) Works‬‏
Cure for having been humiliated.

and Mindfulness Based Anxiety Reduction is awesome but takes a lot of work and dedication to do - but the benefits you rake in are proportional :). Try it:

YouTube - ‪MBAR vs Social Anxiety Part 1‬‏

Good luck mate, and don't give up! :)
