yo

possibly, why? That's such a broad and misdiagnosed term.

Just curious how you cope with it. I went to a party earlier and didn't say anything to anyone or barely make eye contact and I'm tired of being such a beta because of it.

Thats called Being a Bitch OP

lol

I do OP, although I'm also diagnosed autist so that might have more to do with it. People are shit basically

why didn't you socialize? is there a reason you went if you knew you would do this? Or did you get there and then you got anxious?

I went to try to overcome my anxiety but it didn't help

what sets it off or is it constant?

I honestly don't know I am just weirdly awkward at social settings like that. And I never care to brag and I'll say I'm maybe a 6 out of 10 and I noticed a lot of people noticed me by just being there. Idk maybe it's the attention? Hard to describe it, it's like I want the attention at the same time I don't like attention. Maybe I'm afraid of trying to be funny and failing? I know I'm not great at holding conversations

Did you go with any friends? What kind a party was it? Are you prescribed anti anxiety meds? How old are you?

Answer that for me real quick, I may have some advice

i gotta get going soon so respond quick

26 yrs old
12 ppl at the party all friends
Don't take any meds

Guys and girls? Does talking to a certain sex make you anxious or just socializing in general?

Im straight but talking to guys makes me more relaxed i guess because there isn't any sort of attraction there
Sounding like a bitch now but I think it's all coming from a deep fear of being rejected

Nah man you good. I'm just trying to get a perspective on what your anxiety is like before I offer any advice. So your anxiety, my big question is: Do you always have anxiety in all social situations, or is it certain ones? Parties can be a trigger for people because there's so many things going on; meeting people and being introduced, girls, amount of people, etc.

What makes you like the most anxious if you had to narrow it down to specific things?

I wouldn't self diagnose but I have felt it a lot when I was younger. The type of thing where I would be in the que in the supermarket, shitting a brick about having to talk to the cashier, hoping I don't fuck up.

One of the best things to do is be around more people, more often, starting with friends and family members, I know it might not be easy but sitting in your room by yourself isn't going to help. You have to make the decision to get better.

you'd probably identify with this

Exercising is also a great help for confidence boosting

and so is not fapping all the time

best of luck

It's not all social settings, it's just house parties and crowded bars. Not a huge bar goer but if I do go it's always with some friends
The most anxious thing is either: fear of rejecting OR fear of embarrassment

While I wish I could say I'm not that bad but I don't give a chance to put myself at risk sometimes.

Nice information for a specific kind of anxiety. This one seems directed at low self-esteem & body image.

fitness and productive work are better than masturbating constantly, definitely. But it feels good.

Shit man thanks for the links I really appreciate it

The fit thing really upsets me because I actually lost about 30 lbs in about a month and I thought me being fit now would have boosted my confidence any but it didn't

No idea what my specifix anxiety is or if the links will even help but I'll take what I can get. It's a step in the right direction at least

I see what you're saying. Dude, you ain't got nothing to worry about. You don't got deep anxiety disorder, you're just a normal person overthinking things and stressing yourself. I guarntee you, any small & minor things that made you feel weird are just in your head. You got invited to a party. I'm sure you had a good time but there's no way you were quiet all the time. You had to talk to a few people at least, right? And also, you got invited to a party! that means they like you bro, Maybe you should have a party with some of those friends soon and kick out some $$ to make it a nice party, like free booze and some food or something. You'll perk up, this was just a bad night and you're overanalyzing things. I'm sure that you were a pleasant dude. Just hang out with them again and get good at meeting people that you can see at group events or whatever. This isnt anything too crazy at all man. You drink?

Thats why we're here, not there, socialising.

Thanks Sup Forumsro even if it's from an user on an image board that does mean a lot tk me.

Yeah you're right I was talking to the people from the party so I wasn't just sitting there quietly like a seial killer.

love to drink but tonight I didn't which probably could have helped me too loosen up a bit and the lame but funny [now] reason why because i didnt want to move. I was afraid of risking a conversation with a stranger.

Oh I know that
Been here for over 10 years and wonder if being here is part of the problem. But at the same time who better to ask this than a shitton of people just like me on here?

And i dont want to end up either on here till I'm 50 or put a gun in my mouth. I gotta "branch out" or whatever and actually grow up

not really idgaf truly but my shrink believes otherwise
I just need a letter for the court
I should just kms
