Would anyone be interested in creating a video

I have had this idea for a while, I thought it might be kinda cool to make a compilation video of social phobia world members. Something like 10 second clip showing people who you are, your user name and stating that you have social phobia (or social anxiety disorder)... in the end, I...or someone with far more advanced video editing skills could join them all up, put some music to it and post it on youtube..

It might be comforting to people out there who are dealing with it on their own to know that there are people who can identify with how they are feeling and what they are going through.

Inspired by another video (which I can no longer find)... I thought it may be kind of fun..

If not, oh well... :)

That could be both educational for those people who don't get it and consoling for those people who do.

Well thats what I thought too.. I dont think SA is very understood at all.

Perhaps people dont have the means to do something like this, I just wish I could find that other video, it was inspiring to me.

ShyKiwi,
I think that's a good idea. I really don't think a lot of people understand SA and related disorders we deal with and it would be educational as well as comforting to those do suffer SA to know that they are not alone

Thanks :) I thought it would be pretty cool to hear everyones accents as well, showing that its a global problem and that it can affect all different kinds of people. Webcams etc would be one way.

But we will see, given the nature of the problem.. it may not be an idea for everyone.

^ Yeah, I betcha I'm not the only person here who would have to wrestle with camera phobia or simply fear of the spotlight.

right, a webcam would work, but it might not be ideal situation for some. I'd be fine with it, so if you happen to gather enough ppl for the project, keep us posted

cool... well if enough people say they are up for it then I will do the noble thing and make the first video...I think maybe 30 - 40 people would be a good number.... if the idea dies...oh well, it happens.

Wow, this will be awesome if it happens.

I admire you so much for having the idea and getting some traction for it.

I would do it if enough people joined. I have this fear and I wonder if more people with anxiety have it. I do not want to show my face on camera because I am scared someone might recognize me and know the reason why I have been so shy. I have been to therapy and I have even avoided exposure in therapy and since a small child. Doing a video for 10 seconds is just one hump in the road of becoming the strong will, carefree, happy person I wish to be. Just trying to help while affirming others and myself because it can be a very difficult task. I think your idea is great. Good luck.

I think this is a great idea.

A part of me would love to do this, but it would take a lot (I really can't emphasize that enough) for me to be able to actually do a video of myself. Honestly, I don't even know if I could do it. :/ I can hardly take a picture of myself as it is, let alone even post my face here on the site.

Like Beleza said, I'm also afraid someone would see the video and recognize me and find out why I've been so extremely shy.
