So, I have social anxiety. Pretty much my anxiety is EXTREMELY bad. I do have a counselor, but I dont think hes working out to well. I try not to talk to much because I dont want people to start thinking I'm a "Debbie Downer." Help please someone tell me I'm not the only one who feels this way. I got invited to meet up with a friend from highschool, and my anxiety takes over, and I have been avoiding the situation like the plague.

You are 100 percent not alone! I have social anxiety, separation anxiety, I isolate myself from friends, I'm a complete mess and I'm getting worse everyday. I have never been in therapy. The Dr put me on Prozac I quit taking that for no reason because I don't like taking medicine. I really feel like I'm going crazy at times and I just can't comprehend why I'm this way. Keep your head up.

Thanks so much. I just joined this group today. I finally told my husband I have issues of course he says he knows. I just wish I knew all the reasons why!!! I have a happy life , I really have no reason to be this way but it's out of my control and I'm willing to admit it. We are in this boat together and we will get out of it hopefully soon. I'm here you as well
