I just had a really bad experience. I went to the mall with my b/f, I asked him if he could come with me so I could pick up some new clothes (I seriously have only a few outfits). I was in an excited mood and really wanted some new things (still nervous from my social anxiety, but nothing was going to stop me). Well that's what i thought. It stopped me. I went into the store I was looking most forward to going into and it was packed. I tried to look around with my b/f, started to feel nervous and had a panic attack. I teared up, couldn't catch my breathe felt horrible. He got me to go into two more stores, I begged him not too, but he was trying to help me and get the clothes I wanted. I had panic attacks in those stores as well...cried...and just felt miserable. I saw some really nice things too but couldn't get up the nerve to try them on. I just freaked out. I hate the response that comes from social anxiety. Sometimes I feel I can do things, and it works temporarily (like shopping), but tonight not at all. I feel miserable. I really need clothes!!
