I am a 17 year old male in high school. I transfered to my current school in grade 10 because i had alot of friends in grade 11 and i diden't like the school i was suposed to go to. In grade 10 from what i remember i was fine in terms of social situations, however i was a little more shy than most people but it wasen't that big of a deal because it just took me a little longer to get to know people. However in grade 11 everything slowly went down hill, the first day i went back to school i coulden't even look up while i was walking through the hallway. I am now in my final 3 months of high school and the problem is still there and getting worse. I am terrified of any social situation, i skiped my grad photo for the year book and my class photo for t-shirts. since i am in grade 12 now my friends that i used to go out to lunch with are graduated so at lunch time i sit in the cordor by myself and read a BMX magazine. As you can see from the length of this post this is a very serious problem i am having and this is a last resort. One of the reasons why i am asking for help here is because i cant go to my grad because of this problem and that is very very depressing. I am terrified of talking to girls and i have never been to a school dance in my life. even though i have been told im a good looking guy i have absoulutly no self confidence, which i need to get over this. I have been to a therapist but cancled after one session because i diden't find it really helped. So if you take your time to read this i would appreciate some advice and thankyou.
