Who is getting better?

[Chrysta]

I have been on medication for a little over a year. Everything was sooo bad. But I am getting better. But it seems that a lot of people are stuck. So I was wondering how many lucky people on here are getting better.

I've been slowly slowly getting better over a few years now using meds and trying to train my brain to think differently - no brain, down brain, thats a bad brain!! No treats for you tonight. :twisted:

Yes and nver the last couple years my social anxiety has gotten a lot better.I go out ever day now but it seem unfortunately my social phobia has pretty much staid the same.

I'm probably better - not as anxious in most situations as before. But I still feel like I have a hard time getting to know anyone and open up. Thus my life still feels rather empty sometimes.

Im doing more than I used to... eg: working, doing own shopping etc but my social anxiety has steadily kept getting more and more difficult to cope with

i am a much different person now than when i was in my early 20s. im not afraid to meet new people, not afraid to speak on the phone, not afraid to talk to strangers, not afraid to initiate a conversation.

my social phobia only flares up during public speaking, around authority figures and of course the ever popular, the dating world. i still feel like a totally different person now than before. so better that i had a phoenix tattooed on my back

Well i've only been to therapy 4 times and been on meds about 3 weeks but I already feel slightly better. Less anxious generally thanks to the meds and therapy is helping me understand WHY I am like the way I am, hopefully i'll get even better when the real therapy kicks in and I start training my brain to think differently.

I have hope now, I didn't before.

i feel like im getting better. only thing im the same at is not being able to talk to members of the opposite sex that i find attractive comfortably .

i cant go to parties or stuff like that because i'll feel like a herb but i can go kick back and chill with people , got a job , can go shopping alone. i play basketball nearly everyday and have a couple people that i talk to while waiting for a game or if we're tired and we can just having conversations about the nba or other subjects

- i used to have to go with somebody and im going out a little bit more. hopefully im going to be able to approach girls and get rejected comfortably this summer.
