Does anyone else get really bad anxiety when in a chat room (if there's a few people in it)? I didn't use to get it but I completely do now.
And on a side note... grrr I hate "selective mutism".  It shouldn't be called selective.

I'll admit, I do sometimes. I just feel like I never know what to say. i also get really afraid to post on some message boards sometimes too, in fear that I'll get made fun of in a mean way. And it has happened. i know, I shouldn't take it too seriously, but it really bothers me sometimes, especially if I was only trying to be nice.

i am social phobic and agoraphobic, and when i go into a chat room that is busy i might as well be in a room full of people, complete with anxiety attack.

Sometimes chat makes me very anxious so a lot of time I sit there not saying much, even though sometimes I want to join in.
