I wouldn't think That I have social anxiety because I'm actually outgoing, but w/ strangers, for instance walking on the beach or down the street, I think everyone is looking at me and it really bothers me. As far as what do I do here at the house, well I'm a live in caregiver for a disabled man so that takes some of my time, and I do crafts. I'm crocheting a rag rug and making bird houses right now. THAT really pisses me off sometimes too!! I used to be on a bunch of meds but haven't been in 5 yrs. I'd like to see someone but WILL NOT get involved w/ COUNTY mental health no matter where or what and can't afford to just pay a shrink!

I WISH I could give everyone staring at me the finger! I just keep my head down and try to ignore them. I'm going to look for that book because it's exactly how I'm feeling!


awww

we do want to talk to you- you're a valued member

i know it probably seemed like no one was responding, but this forum is huge, and by the time 1 post is posted, about 10 others come up to the top and it gets buried- but i do my best to respond to the threads.. just go down the list and respond.

you should look in to agoraphobia. it's a possibility.

i have that, and like you- i have no idea why i'm scared of the outside (so when you said that, it really clicked with me)
Thanks for this!
