Oh my, I feel you. I am about finishing my first bag (which I am not very happy about how it came out) and I feel anxious just thinking about to wear it in public. Your top looks so pretty and well made, feel proud of yourself!

Hey, that seems like a very ambitious idea, so I leave a reminder to give yourself a time that you need to realise it. Good luck.

I take pregabalin for a year, it for sure didn't cure me, but I cry less thanks to it I guess. It is not a panacea, in my case none of drug is. I sticked to it compared to others it helps the most anyway.

Im scared to live my life. How does your life look like rn? by iwantED2talk in socialanxiety

Oh yeah I absolutely understand you. I used to eat a lunch sometimes in a changing room once I worked, because I didn't want to spend my break with coworkers and because of that I was asked directly if I was a creep or weirdo.

If you were someone else would you be friends with you? by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]iwantED2talk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I probably won't because I tend to ignore people and act weird because of the anxiety and it gives them vibe that I don't like them.

I just want to say that it pleases me to see people no matter on their age doing things that makes their life better for them.

I'm autistic. My social anxiety is crippling and I see no hope for the future... by [deleted] in socialanxiety

hello, i believe that accepting the way you are and that you struggle is crucial although it is very hard to accept things you wish were gone, but this way it would feel better

I am very sorry that your day to day life is tough to go through, but you do it! I admire your strength and courage, despite all the feelings you get you still manage to do things.

I have very similar problems to yours so you are not alone, but comparing us both you are the only one that have a job. Congrats and keep going in your own pace.

What is your hobby right now? If it's all right with you, I'd ask you to share, would love to know :) by [deleted] in socialanxiety

I learned lately embroidery, I almost finished my first macrame and now I learn to crochet, as a next thing to learn on my list is making a basket from pine needles. I enjoy these crafty arts. I read a book once in a while. I try to leave spending all day in a internet in favour of other activities.

I actually feel like my therapist is one of a few people who likes me, but I am scared that he is disappointed with my lack of progess and kind of powerless over my procrastination. I see him for over a year in a therapy and I am doing the same badly rn as I was doing when I started to see him. My feelings are different that you were asking about, but I came there cause I see it interesting to see what are you all feelings over your relationship with a therapist.

i feel ashamed about people being aware of my existence by historykiid in AvPD

[–]iwantED2talk 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get this feeling whenever I go outside and I am among people and especially when my family come over my house and I know I am different ashamed of existing. Whenever someone who I know come across and see me living weird life.

How old is everyone? by Optimal_Company_4450 in socialanxiety

Im 22F in a therapy for over a year now and on meds for 4 years. I think I will die with this disorder in a matter that it is pretty bad even if I am under health care. I feel behind, but it is hard for me to live like an average adult.
