Melodramatic Introduction

[SillyMe]

I'm going to do this quickly, just going to type something a little repetitive, probably starting every sentence with the same letter, and maybe I'll actually post it this time. I don't have to, just feels like I should. Facing fears and whatnot.

My name is Michelle, I'm 20, I live in central Florida with my parents and younger brother, I got fired from a job I dreaded three days ago, I've been taking anti-depressants since middle school and I just realized I haven't spoken face to face with anyone other than my family today.

I haven't been diagnosed with any sort of social phobia, I just know I cried so hard I couldn't read the screen after finding a description. I hate that, it's why I haven't posted my introduction even though I've been commenting for a month. Silly me, who am I to diagnose myself with something I read about online?

And that's probably as far as I'll get into it here. A little because it'll be surprising if I actually post this, and a lot because nobody wants to read an essay and that's pretty much what I just typed.

If you read it, thanks. You have waaay more patience then I do.

Okay, here goes, I'm gonna post it. Probably.

Hi, and welcome to the forum.

Welcome

Nobody mind if you write an essay if you need to, more people than you think will have the patience to read it.

Hey Michelle, please don't cry anymore okay? You wanted someone to talk to and relate to and so you found your way here. We'd love to have you here, officially diagnosed with SA or no. I'm like you in that sense, I haven't been officially diagnosed with SA either. But, I do relate to a lot of problems the lovely people on this site have. This is like my second home and I hope that you come to think the same as well. Welcome to the site.

Well posted! My favorite activity is writing replies and then deleting them...

Hello, welcome to the forum. I can relate. The doctors I have been to here suck, they don't take SA seriously and since I have it they sort of just said 'fend for yourself'. Don't cry though! It get's better.

I love the thread title.

Thank all y'all who replied.
From what I've seen, this site is made up of a really good group of people and I'm glad I found it.
