I have a lot of problems and such but my biggest one would probably have to be my anxiety. I prefer talking to strangers online than people I know in real life because I can be my true self here and not worry about judgment and I don't have to show myself. Online it feels like I'm showing people the real me by not showing them the physical me if that makes sense. Anyway, it's the standard "I hate talking in front of any sized group of people" but it also goes much deeper than that. I don't function very well when I'm on my own. I can't ask strangers questions or ask for help unless someone is there with me that I trust completely. If I'm alone, I just suffer in silence. When I'm talking to anyone new or in front of a group, my face goes completely red, I start stuttering and flubbing like an idiot, I rock back and forth on my feet kind of as a coping mechanism, and I wring my hands to preoccupy them. That's the tip of my anxiety.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
