Do you have moments when your anxiety completely disappears when interacting with other people? This has happened to me a few times. For example, three years ago I took an advanced english course (my native language is spanish), and right from the beginning I participated actively, expressing my opinions (one time I had to sing in front of the class, and I did it without so much as blushing, as if I was in the shower or something), I was perhaps the most active student in that course, anyone who didn’t know me could have mistaken me for an extroverted person (nothing could be further from the truth). But the last day of class everyone was talking about going out for pizza or something to celebrate; alarms started going off in my head, and I got the hell out of there as soon as I could, and never saw any of them again. This exemplifies my total incapability to establish a personal relationship with anyone.
