I don't know,not many people..but sometimes I will meet people and they just give off such a friendly none judgemental vibe that I feel safe with them.But that's rare and otherwise its limited to a very few friends/family.

I had to really think about this. I guess the ONLY person who has helped me and i fully trust would be my mum. My dad and sister don't understand my problems because its not a physical illness i have its more of a mental one so they tend to not want to speak about it.

I only really trust my one friend whose moved onto a college far away. We don't really talk anymore, and I keep a tight council around myself.

First and mostly, my younger brother. I can truly talk to him about anything.
Secondly, my girlfriend. I have been talking to her about all my social issues and how hard it is being around people, and she actually empathizes with me, as she has felt that way too, although I don't think to the extent that I have. I also don't know what she thinks about all I have told her.... I sometimes wonder if she's kinda freaked out about it lol. I said well, I'm just being honest.

It took me a long time to figure out that telling people things that are personal is not the end of the world. Sometimes it's OKAY to get things out there. Things that are giant and embarrassing to us are really very minor to most other people I think.

people who i dont see as intimidating or authorty figures, or arrogant judgemental type personalities, so people who are more down to earth and non-condescending in conversation...my whole family are often very arrogant and over bearing in conversation so i find it difficult to open up around them ...

The only person i truly feel comfortable with is my mum, she doesn't judge me or try to change me, she accepts me for who i am and although that can upset her at times she loves me none the less :)

Completely comfortable? I'd say no one. I'm comfortable enough around my mom, but I never talk to her about my SA issues. She knows I've dealt with depression off and on- she's suffered from it herself, but it still seems like she has the mindset that depression is something you can "snap" yourself out of if you try hard enough- I think she would have little understanding of what SA is or what it really does... she might even think it's an imaginary illness.

I can definitely relate to this. Sometimes I feel like no one knows the real me because I really don't know myself. I have come to find out that the more comfortable you are with yourself, the more comfortable you are around others. I'm amazed at how much progress the I've made in just the past 3 or 4 months. I just got so tired of feeling anxious, sad, depressed and apprehensive for years. I have become much more comfortable with myself. I am more accepting of my flaws and I am giving myself more credit for my accomplishments. I'm not saying that I don't have my "down" moments. But, overall things are a lot better because I'm more happier with my overall self. I really think that is the key--trying to be more comfortable and happier with yourself. Also, trying to think more positive even when things are not going well. Positive thinking is very important.
