[Genelle]

Hey everyone,

I was recently 'officially' diagnosed with SA, but I've had it for as long as I can remember.. I just thought I was extremely shy, and thought it was normal to think the way I did.
I've just started taking medication after my anxiety became so bad, I couldn't even stand up. That was 9 weeks ago now, and I'm only just starting to leave the house again.

I'm 20 years old, from Australia, and am very happy to have found this forum, and meet other people with that I can relate to =)

Hey, welcome to the forum

It sounds like you have very severe social anxiety, I am glad you managed to seek medical help and are gaining benefits from medication.

Hopefully you will also derive some benefit from talking to others in similar situations here.

Good luck with further recovery
