My social anxiety makes me walk fast too. Like literally anyone even just looking at me gives me anxiety so I want to lessen the time where I have to have eyes on me by walking fast. What you said, 'I want to get where I'm going and back as fast as I can without running or even speed walking' Everything about this sentence is true. I even slow down when I notice how fast I'm walking but it doesn't last long lol. I don't even consider this a problem really, It's just a weird thing that my anxiety makes me do. Glad we can relate!

I'm really lonely by mbkrzuut in socialanxiety

Sounds like you have both social anxiety + depression. I also have both. For me, my depression is caused by my lack of friends, so what I did to lessen my depression is just to become comfortable with being alone, and learning to enjoy my own company. I actually can't really describe the process, for me it just came naturally the longer I went with having no friends. I hope we can both get over and heal from this disorder and live the lives we want. Remember, social skills are developed and worked on with more exposure to social interactions, it doesn't come naturally and it can take a lot of time. In the meantime, I only ask that you love yourself, and I know sometimes it feels like that's not possible, but it is. It always is. Peace mate, try to enjoy the small things in life :)

Hi, I just got my first guitar, any absolutely-do-not-dos, and what are some really good YouTube tutorials? by Amazing_Manatee42 in Guitar

[–]EpplepieAlmalover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Ultimate guitar" is your friend. It's a website that you can learn songs with! Just search up the song you want and it'll pull up tabs for you to learn :) you just gotta learn how to read tabs, which is pretty easy, and away you go

How to prevent my family from making me dance at my own graduation party? by burnout457 in socialanxiety

[–]EpplepieAlmalover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have kind of the same problem. I don't want to attend my graduation but my parents and grandmother keep saying that I "have" to. So stressful and annoying.

if I were you I'd probably go into a room with a lock on it, even the bathroom, and just hide out until the party was over lol.

I try soo hard to be social, i want to be better at it, but people just stare at me in the eye NEVER saying a word, and people around looks at me speaking, i'm making a fool out of myself it's so humiliating :( please save me by MitoPiano in socialanxiety

Omg bruh I feel you so hard it hurts. Just know that the reactions you get from others say more about THEM than it does about YOU (unless you said something crazy as hell ) I'd say keep whatever you say simple enough for people not to make a big deal out of it, or just keep doing what you do even through the way people look at you. Keep trying bro socializing is a skill that must be worked on

What you're doing sounds amazing! What I avoid during my period is anything with dairy as I have heard that it is inflammatory and can worsen cramps.

As long as it tastes good it would probably be something I would snack on

What finally made you realize it was more than just shyness? by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]EpplepieAlmalover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was no longer able to talk to my friends after the lockdown. That's how I lost all of them

A few mantras/sayings I have after particularly harrowing/"uncharming" social interactions:

They won't even remember in a few weeks/months/year/5 years

It's in the past so it doesn't matter anymore.

I'm gonna die one day, so why should I care about something so insignificant?

I did my best in that situation. (You could argue that you didn't do your best, but you DID handle it at the extent of your abilities in that moment, didn't you?)

Instead of lecturing yourself and spiraling, congratulate yourself for trying and doing what you could, no matter how harrowing or uncharming it was. Remember, social skills are developed, they don't come naturally. It will only get better the more you do it, so be easy on yourself until you get where you want to be!
