  1. Coping With Social Anxiety
    I'm not sure where it came from, but I have developed a perspective on people in general that I really don't like and that I know isn't healthy. There are about 5 people in my life that I trust and believe really care about me, and they are all close family members. Aside from them, I feel...
  2. Family and Friends
    I’ve been with my boyfriend for 2 years now. I have never been in a long term relationship and somehow this one worked out. He seemed to like me for my ‘shyness’ which he now knows is social anxiety. One night I broke down and spoke to him about it. I’ve met his parents briefly a few times but...
  3. Spiritual Support
    So I don't necessarily follow a particular faith or belief. My belief system is more eclectic, pulling from animism, Buddhism, Pagan, etc. sort of beliefs. Regardless something that makes me feel most in touch with my spirituality is meditation. I feel more at peace and connected with the Earth...
  4. Introductions and Welcomes
    Greetings, Having tried virtually everything I'm aware of for SAD, I thought it would be worth trying a support group for advice or simply moral support. I developed SAD right around the usual age, emerging from childhood at 10 or 11, and its been one of two longstanding issues that have...

    Hey everyone :) So, I just want to get your opinion on how to deal with people laughing at you. My situation: So, I'm a female student (16 years old) and I have been in the same class for 6 years now. In my class, there are some guys that I've never really interacted with (they probably know me...
  10. Secondary Disorders
    I am realizing lately that when people are upset, injured, in pain, etc I get annoyed because I have to console them or help them. If it wasn’t considered rude, I would walk away until they were better so I wouldn’t have to deal with them. Also, if someone is telling me a story, I am never...
  11. Coping With Social Anxiety
    Hey everyone :) So, I have a problem that is probably relatively insignificant, but it seems so big in my head. Over the last few days, I've been texting with a boy via Snapchat. I'm a girl and I don't really have a lot of experience talking to the opposite sex and meeting new people in general...
  12. Introductions and Welcomes
