1st timer
so i am new to this. very nervous. but i want to get better so lay it all out. I have anxiety and a long history of panic attacks. but i have moved to a new place and i went from being shy and told people think i am too snotty from not talking to the other extreme and i now compulsively talk to make friends and it turns people away. I feel alone all the time. I stay at home with my kids and my husband works all the time. I try to be myself. but i am alone so much that when i see an adult and i havent talked to one for so long that i get really anxious and become annoying and talk their head off (freaking out tho on the inside). I want to change. I am constantly kicking myself for saying too much, or wondering if I offended them. I have stayed at home for almost 6 years. I never use to be this bad. Im probably dumb for getting on here. maybe i really just need a friend...

Journaling is a Good Idea. You can Organize your Thoughts and have a place to dump out all the extra Ones Peoples may not Want to Hear?
Im Listening and Dailystrength is a Great place.
Thank you :). Im hopeful in controlling this. too many years. nice to talk to those who can relate and we can help each other maybe
Ya I can relate to u. I have suffered from anxiety for a long time and stay at home , work from home,so it totally shut me off from people. N I too get a bit anxious , sometime I too talk too much.
But u know I don't care anymore what people think
My own cousin who is my neighbour also ,looks at me with strangeness , she is very cold anyway , so I cudnt tell her
I want real friends who understand u n listen to ur problems . I am hopeful I will get one here.
