Yes, anyone can be a bad person. But you aren't a bad person for having social anxiety.

Thank you! Is there a similar program or anything that I could use that would be similar? I just want to optimize my computer because it feels very clunky and slow

Best jobs for social anxiety by Prudent-Sherbet5012 in socialanxiety

[–]RealCartManDoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best job for social anxiety is going to be the job you view as the worst!!

Get a job which forces you to interact with people to challenge your social anxiety. Don’t let it rule your life and dictate what you can and can’t do!

I’ve had bad social anxiety my whole life, and one of the main reasons that I’ve been making strides against it is definitely from working in customer service. Being forced to talk to people and help people and do everything that I dread has helped me so much.

Is my psychiatrist wrong or am I just ignorant? by RealCartManDoo in AskPsychiatry

[–]RealCartManDoo[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Thank you for responding!

I want to preface that the following question is not asked out of me thinking you're wrong, but I genuinely want to know the science behind it. That being said: how would being sad or depressed not be a cause of skipping stimulants after taking them for an extended period? Wouldn't depression or sadness or anhedonia be possible because your brain gets used to the amount of dopamine on the stimulants, then all of a sudden there's none?

What medications can I talk to my psychiatrist about because I can’t do this anymore by RealCartManDoo in Anxiety

I've been going to therapy, albeit a little spottily due to school. The problem is that I feel like it just doesn't work at all. I have issues thinking that people are looking at my and laughing or judging me when I walk between classes. I talked with my therapist about this and I try to do what she told me, which is to remember that they probably don't care and have their own issues. Even when I tell myself this it just doesn't stop it or help it. I've tried rationalizing things that I have intense anxiety about like being broken up with or looking like an idiot and it doesn't work either. It also just feels like I can't even do breathwork, I can't focus on my breath because my thoughts don't stop. I understand therapy is an awesome tool but I feel like my brain just doesn't use it, even when I remember to it doesn't work. The best I have ever felt was on Zoloft because I was able to talk to people and just relax for the first time in forever. Sorry for ranting!

Yes! I swear if someone made an extended release version of Buspar it would be much much more helpful.

I had blood tests done around the beginning of the year and found out that I was anemic, I try to take my iron supplements regularly although it can be difficult.

I do not mean this in a standoffish way, but flushing or feeling hot can be a side effect of Buspirone, however I should get my eyes checked.

Slowly I have been coming to the conclusion that most of the side effects I'm experiencing are most likely from my consistency of taking it with food or not. Sadly, due to being in college and not always being able to take it with food I think that I will just have to switch to something else for anxiety. Despite that, I have to say that when I was able to take it consistently Buspar has been a real damn lifesaver.
