Hello, I am new here.. and I just wanted to get my profile started, and I want to write 5 posts in order to get that finished as quick as possible. Seeing as I tend to procrastinate, lose train of thought, have severe adhd and troubles planning, prioritizing or whatever. I just wanted to share that I am currently struggling with some pretty heavy social anxiety.. which is not new. I am still learning to come to terms with it and accept it and work on it and am seeing a CBT psychologist sepcialist for social anxiety and support groups and intensive outpatient therapy and support groups and all of that good stuff. I am not in school right now and do not have a job and my full time job is pretty much just taking time for myself to rest and recover and learn how to deal with all ofmy psychological issues. I also see an addictions psychiatrist and he has me on pretty good medications.. none of which are addictive or cause terrible side effects..but I am living in my parents basement right now and don't have many friends that I actually hang out with. Because my friends are all similar to me and have their own issues going on. They are amazing friends though and I still consider them close even if we dont see eachother often. I dont know how else I can really work on my social anxiety if I am going to support groups and counsellors but do not really know how to expose myself to my fears and stuff. okay I am exhausted right now. That is all for now! Any advice? Hopefully this post sort of makes sense.
