    Hi,
    First of all; great video, and you look great! (i guess you are telling yourself now that i say that to be nice to you, but i`m not :) .

    Are you having therapy at the moment?
    I started taking therapy a couple of months ago and i`m really making progress… Social anxiety is a complex problem and it takes time to get better, but it is well treatable.

    I`m really glad i made the step and i think everyone with social anciety schoudl. It will not get away when you do nothing about it !

    This’s interesting. I came upon this video while checking some of my old notes. I had social anxiety, and I started taking notes of my thoughts. What a coincidence to see this video while checking papers. What I did was, to note down my notes, and see what happened in real life to see if things were “failing” as I thought. This particular example was me thinking that I had a very bad conversation with a friend. Then she sent me a message saying “I love you” the next day.

    Then at some point I kind of realized that my idea of failure of a conversation or any social event wasn’t really a failure. Giving myself a reality check after your stage 2 worked pretty fine for me. That’s how I stopped going back to stage 1 in your terms. Maybe this works for some other people there. keep trying, the circle always breaks at some point. :)

    Yeah and I wish I wasn´t so shy because then I would have a girlfriend LOL. I´m shy even though I´m good looking.

    one of the best things to do is learning deep relaxation before forth coming events and the best relaxation technique to practice is Yoga Nidra, it helps with all sorts of nervousness, fear and stress related problems by way of balancing both brain hemispheres. Its always available on ebay, look for the title
    “Yoga Nidra total relaxation no more tension”

  15. #15 by itzahazylife on June 29th, 2009

    god i feel u so much..i didn’t get my license until recently at the age of 21. before that i would stay cooped up in the house for months. it’s my safe haven. i have 1 friend from high school that i hang out with here and there, but usually only at my house. now that i have my license, i will go to a diner, or a store just to get out, but don’t converse with anyone, and if i do, it’s just lame small talk..it’s like a prison..i really feel your pain and hope u can be free one day..

    Looking at how your’re doing:
    dispite your social anxiety, you talk to millions from all around the world.
    I’d say you aren’t doing so bad… :)

  17. #17 by 45edmund on June 30th, 2009

    Congratulations for making the effort to do this. I have suffered from this condition for many years and relate to much of what you say. You have been very brave to talk about the condition like this.

    I have lived these stages exactly. Nice video but it doesn’t end giving hope (Failing :-)

  22. #22 by pirategirl4ev on July 10th, 2009

    I have SA, but its pretty random for me. Like I’ll be fine being with a ton of people, but then all of a sudden I’ll just think “Wait, what am I doing?” And I’ll just pysch myself out into becoming super shy and nervous. I’ve kind of learned that its ALL in your head. Because when I just forget about (Which is so so hard for me to do) it goes away…

  23. #23 by canadianirishpride on July 11th, 2009

    Good for you to speak out like this. I could never show my face like this and talk openly about my problems. It really helps me cope by knowing I’m not the only one with these issues.

  24. #24 by paranoid492 on July 11th, 2009

    ok heres my bit. when i was 11 the neighbours called the police saying I was home alone when in fact my whole family was asleep and they knew this. the police showed up. we had always been a wide eyed christian family so this came as quite a shock and we moved south to get away. ive never really been the same but now i am SO VERY consciouss of what people think of me. it affects my mind my stature my face, all my life i have tried to to fit in and hide. no one can could ever understand me.

    Oh woman, who hurt you so much that you are so afraid of people? It cut my heart in peaces to hear how you are suffering. You may not believe me NOW, but you are a very special person, a rare kind of person with a very sensitive soul. I hope you have the strength to go outside in future too, because if you can find your soulmate (He’s already born and somewhere out there!) love will heal all your wounds. Never give up going up to stage two!!!
