Yup! I have been reclusive for most of my life. I've always had a social phobia, even as a child, but now it's so out of hand that I don't have any friends b/c it's torture to be around people. I'm attractive, but haven't dated in 5 years. I can't work. I can't leave my house, except to go grocery shopping. But that's an improvement- I used to not even be able to tolerate being in a supermarket. I've been taking Klonopin at a pretty high dosage for 18 years, & it doesn't help. Feeling hopeless & sad b/c I don't want to live my life alone.
