possible cure for social phobia?

how about getting a decent boat, drifting out in to the middle of the ocean, and living off fish. could that cure social phobia? you could have a good chat with the fish before you eat it. i dont know how you'd get salt free water to drink. i guess everyone has to go some way.

maybe take a radio for when you get in trouble, hope someone comes and gets you, get your water and go right back out and do it again.

then the ugly boats that carry those big boxes would get familiar with you, they'd see your signal again, and think, jesus its her again. shes run out of water again or cant catch any fish. do we really need to save her again?

it might work. you never know till you try!
 
Fish eyes contains salt free water. There was o couple who spent 100 days in the ocean eating just fish and beards. Anyways it's a great idea. One of my fantasies is to go somewhere alone to Alaska or something familier. Or an desert island. Maybe one day... :)

hell yeah, me too. thats what keeps me goin. im a step closer now with the whole fish eye thing. That'd take a whole bunch of fish eyes, but i guess as a person at sea, its not like you wouldnt have some time on your hands. i'd pass on the beards though! 100 days! there's hope

Although Id love to do some sort of survival trip (3mths or whatever) I wouldnt wanna be away from people. Yes I get nervous around them but people are fun and life without them would be just dull

I beg to differ. I'd have a blast in a post-apocalyptic world with me as the only survivor. In fact I'm pretty sure that's the only way I could ever be happy

have you been on the caffeine pills again! :D

we "borrowed" a rowing boat one night at kirkcaldy harbour and decided to row it into sea, we nearly got sweapt away by the current, i think the nearest country would have been russia or something!

it was still a good laugh though:D

I sometimes think I'd be okay with the whole Mad Max apocalyptic world idea myself. It definitely wouldn't make me go insane if I were the last person alive.

Y'know, sometimes that's exactly what I feel like doing. Maybe find the most convenient deserted island and make like "Castaway": befriending an inanimate object that will never judge unfairly or shut me down.

At least in that situation the goal of surviving will stop a torturing analytic mind from worrying all the time.

If you provide the boat I'll provide the endless supply of fishbait. :p

anxiety or no anxiety, the post-apocalyptic (or however you spell it) world would be a hell of a lot of fun. there is no evidence to support the fact you need people buzzing around. its not a good thing to bring up in conversation though, cause you know, then they think your going to expedite the who apocyptic process.

yeah thats my theory too, simplicity along with real problems the kind that actually have solutions! no kidding, we're all gonna have to start a fishbait fund,... unless someone would like to volunteeer to be the fishbait? any takers?
 
It doesn't matter if there is a cure. I think it's better to be eaten by a bear or shark at 35 years old than to live to 70 like I live now. My country is small so atleast there is a big chance I would be showed on TV... That would be a big honour. Now I'm just existing on this planet, not living. I'm just saying that if I'm going to be the same when I will be 35, theres no point of living like that for another 35 years. So I have 12 years to overcome SA :) After that I'm go to some adventure or I'm living a normal life...
