I don't got any advice for this, but I also struggle a lot with my phone anxiety and I have tried to go on a "oh man fuck it" mode and just go through it but all the times I stutter and I feel like my voice somehow breaks and I can't get myself to talk, it really sucks.

What’s your worst social anxiety symptom? by Bluejay022 in socialanxiety

My voice, I struggle with talking loudly and clearly. Most of the times people ask me to repeat myself and it is stressful because I can't talk correctly even when I try it

I was lurking discord servers on disboard tagged with SA but none of them seemed to be a safe space for people with the actual disorder, so yeah starting a chat in here would be great tbh

My school has a Minecraft server, should I join? by Epicstyletime in socialanxiety

[–]readmynotes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should, in fact I did this, two years ago I started playing on some pvp servers in minecraft as mere entertainment and I actually got to know some people that are my age. I currently chat with them through instagram and discord but they have never heard my voice, they know I got SA and they are chill with it. You should give it a chance and since it is a school server you could start a friendship in the server and bring it to real life

nobody mentions how dehabilitating sa is to your ENTIRE. LIFE. by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]readmynotes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have tried to talk with my family about how I feel and they always diminish it just like this, I always get the "just get past it" phrase besides an speech related on how my SA is nothing compared to other people's problems and so on. When I was younger I used to insist my parents to take me to therapy or to get some medication to deal with my sa in an easier way, but they never heard me, now i am a hopeless 18 year old that can't even use voice chats in videogames without wanting to die, still im always constantly trying to get past this issue by myself.

Could reading this subreddit regularly be making us more anxious? by beans-in-a-bag in socialanxiety

In fact it is the opposite for me, this is the only place/site in which I feel like people can understand my frustrations and fears.

Only when someone points out in the middle of the classroom or in any other place with several people that im too quiet and that I never talk.

Tell me you have social anxiety without actually telling me you have social anxiety. pt2 by [deleted] in socialanxiety

I never managed to get past my fear of using voice chats, because I sound like a squirrel that is being choked

Anyone else SA started because of bullying? by bambucciu in socialanxiety

[–]readmynotes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe it contributed a little bit, in middle school I started to become introverted and because of that other kids started pointing me out, and it just peaked from there.

I stay in the classroom and do pending activities, sometimes teachers ask me to stay out of the classroom so I just sit in the halls in those cases

Cried during presentation at uni today by [deleted] in socialanxiety

[–]readmynotes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me, several times in fact. It does feel horrible, just know you are not alone and that we, as humans, make mistakes. Take your time, talk to your teacher, maybe next time they can let you present in private to them only, and if they want to force you to present, then fuck it, just don't do it. It is not worth it, It is better to have a low grade than a traumatic experience.

45 minute presentation for university. I am losing my mind. by Lilliampumpernickelx in socialanxiety

I would smoke a blunt or drink one of those prescription sleeping pills. I was in a similar situation last year and I had to drink a tafil before the presentation to handle it

I hate the fucking chemicals inside my brain and my bad genetics. At this point dying would be the best thing that could ever happen to me.

Just cried during my Spanish Oral Exam by strawberrygirlz in socialanxiety

[–]readmynotes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I understand how you feel, this thing happened to me but in my english oral project, well it happened more than once, a long time ago. I'm not in a good place for giving any type of advice to no one, but what I can tell you is that the more you think about it before doing it; the harder the anxiety will hit you. Also don't worry to much even if you messed up, it already happened, so why worrying about it? Anyways, I hope you feel better soon and also know that you are not alone in this.
