[thaili]

hi i m a SA sufferer.yesterday our neighbours celebrated their wedding aniversary.since the time they gave me the invitation card i was tensed b'coz i coudnt say no & goin there meant people & people..........making eye contact with knowns..........interacting....getting exposed 2 strangers......[u can understand].i joined this forum 4-5 days ago & have been regularly reading u peoples posts so ihad the courage 2 attend the party.for all the 2 hours i spent there i was with my 2 old friends[with whom i m a bit out going].i started off well but in midst of the party i got a bit nervous.the food was gorgeous but i din really enjoy tht b'coz i was eatin with my friends[u can understand].1 big achievement was that my voice was ok& twisting of tongue din take place.1 blunder i did is i din congratulale my aunt[who threw the party...i mean the wedding couple] now she is gona complain........ .another nervous moment was wen an aunt asked me to dance on stage but i got off with tht pretty nicely :lol:

Well done for going in the first place. There is nothing worse than sitting on your own thinking that you should have gone to something when you didnt.

Congratulations to you! Try not to beat yourself up over the "blunders". You went! That's a great accomplishment in and of itself! Two cheers for you!

Yes Iknow what you mean when you say that you started your night well then it dramatically changed all of a sudden ... When I go out sometimes I'll be fine and confident with myself and when its all going well all of a sudden Im overwhelmed and us start freaking out and become randomly anxious... Anyway good to hear it went well for you in the end..
