We do it because we are alone and this is the symptom of it.If you are at home try to do anything for the sake of getting into the habit of talking.Ring customer service of any business.Make some enquiries,talk on the phone,just anything that will relieve you of this alone thing.

I've been trying to join a lot of forums and yahoo groups hoping to find people who live in my city,I''m from Adelaide,Australia.By looking for email/pen pals and so on I hope I'll find new friends.Even posted on other forums looking for other Australians.It didnt do any good.Those other aussies saw my post and didnt reply.

I've joined pen pal sites,I got on facebook looking for old friends.I joined an australian school reunioon forum.Posted in there looking for not only old school friends but old girlfriends.Nothing.

I'm open to suggestions of where I can find people who are understanding to anxiety disorders and might also looking for a friend too.

If you have an luck finding people please share your ideas here on this topic.

Thanks.

Chris.
