I didn't notice this section when I first joined. I thought I should do a little introduction and give a bit of background about myself.
I am in my 30's, have issues with social, general, and severe anxiety (panic attacks). The social anxiety started when I was very young. People always made me nervous. As I get older I developed general anxiety and stress issues in my teen years. When I was 17 I experienced my first full-blown panic attack. Since then, it has made socializing a lot harder. I lost all friends I had because they either didn't believe me or they said it was all in my head and I was making excuses.
I thought joining here could help me out. I am currently working on changing my diet and seeing a new therapist who will walk me through a new way to cope.
