Yes i have a form of Social Phobia(s)

I cancel a lot of nights out because of this. I get really sick(but never been sick), I also get a racing heart and i start panicking about everything and anything. My mates are dead understanding about it, but i feel like i am letting them down by not going out. I am really nervous when we go to night clubs. I don't mind going, i just don't like dancing as i am in the proess of losing weight and have big weight issues. This is the main factor i think. So i take loads of photo's and get a good few drinks in me and i am fine. I love watching everyone else dance and my photo's are always good. But i stress out so much that i am really ill with stomach cramps and upset stomach this is before i go out. Then when i am out i am fine it just takes a while for me to be ok!!

I find i am more nervous when i am in a social situation where i am either the centre of attention or when i am in a close space with people. I was pulled up onto the dance floor and i was nervous like you would not believe. I was so nervous i could not enjoy myself, my mates were trying to dance with me and i was like a stone. My best mate hauled me off teh floor and got me a drink and we just sat and chilled. I was thankful for her.

Hope this helps a wee bit, i think its natural to feel a bit anxious when i social situations but its how you deal with them that makes you think about it
