Hello everyone,
My name is Bridget. I am 20 years old. I've had social anxiety/phobia for as long as I can remember, but was only officially diagnosed with it in the past few years. I've realized now that it has affected my life in many ways, both good and bad. I'm still thinking up new ways it's changed things.
My anxiety has gotten a lot better since I started medication at the beginning of this year (2008). It has done wonders! I never would have imagined doing many of the things I do now, though I still have a long way to go.
In addition to social anxiety/phobia, I have depression, ADHD-inattentive type and a non-verbal learning disability. I've been working hard on figuring all of these out and learning how they have all affected each other and influenced many things in my life. I'm learning to cope and live with all of it as well.
I'm happy I found this site. I feel like I fit in here and will be able to receive and give help. Feel free to talk to me and ask me anything you'd like!
