Whenever I socialize with people, even on here, I get this roaring in my head and my heart beats faster.

Sometimes it is worse than others and I have never found a pattern to it. I have had this happen with people I know really well. So it has nothing to do with first meeting or interacting with someone.

It's almost as if I am over-excited about the interaction. I am going to guess that this is an anxiety symptom. But it is really uncomfortable and the only way to make it go away is to back away from the interaction. But sometimes it can take hours to come down from it and for my breathing and heart rate to come back to normal.
It isn't panic. I have had 2 full blown panic attacks that sent me to the hospital and that feels really bad, where this is almost a manic feeling.
This is when I loose the filter on my mouth and can say or do things I will regret later.

This is probably the one symptom I have that will prevent me from interacting with people.

Anyone else have this happen

Yes, I have called it a buzzing, but roaring is also a good description - similar to when I was in the hospital and got up for the first time in a few days, and my blood pressure dropped and I almost fainted - I got a similar roaring in my head. But the times I was in a social situation and felt it, I would say I was experiencing a small flashback, or being triggered - something was happening or being said that directly reminded me of what I NOW realize was a secret my family was keeping from me, or thought they were - I was aware of it the whole time, I just hadn't realized the mythic proportions it had taken on in the extended family - why everybody always looked at me funny. THAT will make your head buzz under many conditions.
