Social Anxiety?

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.

Hello 4seasons,

I understand you quite well. We are of the same age. And I also have been avoiding school dances, for example...

It seems as the SA; you should do the Liebowitz online test, which can be searched by you in some post of mine (the "Search" link above) to find out about it.

Do you mean grad as the end-of-school-exam party? If so, then I've very similar problem... :lol:

Don't give up, maybe some other specialist could help you, maybe a doctor.

Cheers! :)

can you type that in english?

It'd be better if she would not do it (I doubt if she even could...).
She's a troll from some Polish forums and she find it funny to offend others in the net (although sometimes she manages to say sth clever, but not now)... It's sad but what to do?

Eh, fortunately "slow" has meant here a genitive form of Polish word "word" in plural :), but it should be written so: "słów" - by the way, are the diacritic signs (bars or lines above the letter) seen well by you? Some browsers don't show them correctly.

But some other words there were also not very smart... :/

The true is that: Marwolo's a troll from some Polish forums and he find it funny to offend others in the net (although sometimes he manages to say sth clever, but not now)... It's sad but what to do? :(
