OK, here are the situations that I currently have anxiety in...
somedays, it's waiting in a queue at the supermarket, where I worry about people seeing the easily expressed nervous look on my face.
Somedays it has been just buying something at a shop, where I'm afraid that of anxiety so I'm anxious about being anxious ....gees that's funny!
At work, it was just sitting around my colleagues when I'm not talking to them: I find the anxiety building within (it gets 'broken' as soon as I talk)
When something emotive is going on, by which I mean, an emotional song is played on the radio -I'd get worried about reacting emotionally and appearing out-of-control, embarrassing my self as seeming childish.
And, I feel more self-concious and anxious when I have to fit in in any group and when I'm not already established within the group socially; and when there is some need or expectation for me to fit in.
I used to have fears about speaking to waiters in front of people who I feel the need to be accepted by. ANd I used to have trouble getting onto a bus where I'd be afraid of people watching me in case I'd get nervous talking to the bus driver.
By comparison, here are situations I rarely experience anxiety in...
-most parties and get togethers
-job interviews
- half the time I do pretty well in public speaking
- generally I am pretty confident talking with and chatting-up men
- talking one-to-one with anybody
-being around groups when I don't have a need or expectation to be accepted by them

Socializing with ppl i dont have alotin common with or Neighbors. Ive been very quiet and avoiding for years now and want to break the habit.
My brain races with doubt and fear of boring the peroson and when many give me eye contact when im speaking my brain almost shuts down. It depends however if im angry or really know about the subject im fine.
Small talk with certain ppl looking to improve please help..

-I need to be more assertive. People say I'm too nice
-I need to talk louder because hardly anyone can hear me
-Need to get over this boy I like, so I can stop being nervous around him.

work or school always seemed to be the worst places for me...it's like it's worse there because it's a crappy place that you HAVE to be at, and you'd rather cut your own eyes out than be there because there are almost always assholes there trying to make you miserable all the time...and there's just no way out.
in most other situations I either choose to be or not be in the place, or it's someplace that I don't have to spend a huge amount of time at...but school & work are places nobody really has any choice in unless you're fortunate enough to either be rich, or be able to do homeschool or work from home...i'm hoping my doll business works so I can work at home. 8O if not I don't know where I can work.

School- I can talk to other students (sometimes), but not when there's a huge group. And I wanna make conversations to teachers real bad, but there's some I can't really because I'm shy around them. I always blink a lot whenever a person comes straight to me or just passes by.
