    mines in flaring up. im in college and like i said in the other comments its not a typically anxiety.

    i thought going to a different college would get rid of it. I can’t really kill myself cuz my mom and sister love me so that’s not an option.

    i got s.a.d and my main problem is that i feel i have to be as nice as possible, which means hating myself to love others

    I have this also. I’m 30 years old. Its been very rough. My mom passed away when I was 11. I was always shy i think but i really noticed it when i was 12 or 13. i can’t keep a relationship. God help me.

    I think the part where you are placed in a new environment a is big reason for SAD. Especially when there is a predominant race all around you and you stand out like a sore thumb. Started with me in junior high as well. I’m half korean and half caucasian and I went to an all black school. Like the only one not black in the whole classroom. I moved from FL to GA going to 4th grade. It was shocking to me as a child being put in that situation. Kids made fun of me but it wasn’t that bad. (cont)

    I went to two different elementary schools that were predominently black so I did make a lot of friends. It started getting rough in junior high though. I knew a lot of people in 7th grade because of the two elementary schools I went too but when I got to 8th grade everyone I made friends with abandoned me because of my race. All of the sudden my race was a big issue. I would be made fun of in class and the teacher wouldn’t do anything. That crushed me. (cont)

    I don’t blame them because that is just human nature. I might have done the same thing if I was in there place because I had no guidance growing up because of constant divorce. Unfortunately I took the drug route 2escape and being the rebellious kid. That was the only way I knew how to make “friends.” I thank u for posting your story because I think it helps us all when we share stories. I do thank Jesus for bringing me out of all that, w/o Him I probably would be dead on the street somewhere.

    wow you described how i feel i also was dealing with it as i was going to high school and no i didnt eat in the bathroom but i ate in the libary and i no longer get intimidated by eye contact and i have confidence in talking to people now more than ever but i do get intimidated by a group of popular kids especially if im not with my friends and thats weird cuz i was the youngest child and was spoiled but before thier was constant worry of what others thought and how i could impress them.

    At the end, you said your going to cut it off. My imagination is going crazy with ideas about what you’re cutting off.

    my SAD mostly branches from fear of being sick infront of others or being trapped in a social situation. i used to be so afraid of being sick infront of people at school that i would sometimes not eat for weeks on end during lunch. my junior year i tried to overcome it by forcing myself to eat as much as i possibly could without feeling completely ill which would sometimes result in haveing a panic attack in the class after because i was so afraid i would get sick. (cont)

  19. #19 by bexsullie on August 24th, 2009

    then i would start to panic because i thought people would notice my attack and it would all spiral out of control. whenever im stuck in class and afraid that what people would think if i went to the nurse or the bathroom. the nurse at school would never understand and always send me back to class but im very lucky to have a counsler that would talk to me and settle me down. thanks for letting me ramble and sharing your story. it helps:)

    What i want to change is the inferiority complex i have about myself. That people won’t like me even though the evidence is alway to the contrary. I moved life 5 yrs ago when i left england and moved to America. I find myself now with few friends as opposed to the big group i had in England and its tough, but whats worthwhile that isn’t tough right. Your video’s really helped me to relate to my own story… Thanks Janeyx

    i can relate to many of the things u say here. but when i get really nervous i dont speak because i am nervous what people going to think of me :S how did u get over it ? i have tryed many things ,and even though i get a little better ,it never goes all away.

  22. #22 by freestylee19 on August 25th, 2009

    the silence, the awkwardness, the emty feeling is the worst, feeling others juding me and see what I fear I am, just a person not worth knowing,

    Its so part of my life, I no longer can imagine living w/o it. in a weird way itsmy comfort zone. oh my, its so hard to change and get some true self confidence..

  23. #23 by waterdropJC on August 25th, 2009

    true

  24. #24 by loverofbeats on August 27th, 2009

    you are very beautiful

  25. #25 by loverofbeats on August 27th, 2009

    i agree, i moved from Russia to US when I was 13, still having a hard time to connect with people and make friends. My anxiety is the biggest impediment on my social life.
