Hi

I have currently relapsed into severe social anxiety, again. I only leave my house to work, and run errands. If around others in a public place, I will quickly turn and walk in an opposite direction, or look down-- totally avoid any and all eye contact.

At work, I put my headphones on and stare at the computer like I'm working really hard at something. I don't take breaks or lunchs....only run to the bathroom and back.

All day long, my heart races; I shake; I have these random memories or recall's about interacting with others and I analyze every detail,.... criticizing myself for saying the wrong thing, giving the wrong look, not responding the way they want me to, talking poorly (studdering, mixing up my words). And then analyzing what the person I conversed with was REALLY meaning when they said that.

I honestly feel that everyone who talks to me is out to get something from me, or get over on me in some way.

Something has got to give. I'm miserable.

Have I crossed a boundary and really need to seek help? Or is this something that might pass?

I'm at a loss right now.

Thanks.
Thanks for this!
