I used to be social and good at soccer.. all of a sudden around like grade 7 i started getting performance anxiety despite mvp awards and all that crap I would get panicky and sick before every game. I feel the same way now when I have to tell a story infront of a big group of people at a party or in class i can't even make eye contact anymore or I lost my train of thought half way through a sentence... Now people think Im just really shy when I'm actually not i just have to think about what I'm gonna say about a dozen times from start to finish before i can let myself say it outloud without stuttering...I only feel like I'm being watched when I have to eat in public..i've only recently been able to continue eating when someone gets up to get a napkin or wash their hands and leaves me alone for 1 minute.. ugh crappy way to live
