CBT tips that help. Apply and self talk this about everything u do in social sitauations. "I DONT CARE" . eg. i dont care what they think. i dc if conversation goes quiet. i dc if they praise me. i dc if they abbuse me or critisize me. i dc what i say. i dc if they like it or not. i dc care about...

im 51 yrs old and my social anxiety varies from zero to 90% depending on the situation. It can be like a noose around your neck but i know that the best way to proceed is to make a committment to youself that today yo are going to do something about it. You are not going to put up with it a momen...

@niggerfunfacts5000 im white but what you said about dark skinned people is absolutely unacceptable. The only 1 laughing is you

the pity about great songs like these is that as time passes they get further and further into the distant past and will eventually be forgotten. so sad

darling go to doctor and get help

@JapaneseAnya No u cant cure this urself. You need to get to a doctor immediately. If u try to struugle alone it wont work and time will pass. The doctor will send u to a psychologist where u will learn cognotive/behavioural therapy. Most times it will help you cope better and lead you to not avo...

@ethengar11 Your partner is defineately NOT ashamed of you or your son. He has social phobia which has nothing to do with how he feels about you or your son. Social phobia is an illness that concerns him and the anxiety that people may judge and analyse him. So dont blame yourself. His illness ha...

Im 51 years of age and im going to give all of you younger people advice. The biggest problem with SAD is that it leads to avoidance behaviour. No matter how nervous or easily embarrassed u get u will not die. Sure people will notice and disapprove of you. But remember you have spoken to people ...

(continued). If you shake when you approach she will see it and appraise it probably negatively. But again who cares. So what???? You will get lauged at. Still, so what?????? the point is to get through the initial stages. Remember you have no expectations. Have in mind 4 things to say 1) hi 2) h...

i have had SAD in varying amounts over time. i went to a psychologist and he was not too good. later i went to a psychiatrist and he said one sentence which was excellent. "no matter how bad and how nervous you get and people notice and may even dissaprove you, you will be able to withstand it". ...

How would you act if were talking to a 90 yr old person in a nursing home? would you care what he/she has to say? would you care what he/she thought about you? would you put effort into the social contact with them? probably not. you would be casual and relaxed and nonchalant and not want anythin...

SAD just goes to show how easy it is for the mind to get sick. My understanding is that we are not born sick, we just have a temperament that given the right environmental conditions will trigger the illness. I got it when i was 12.75 yrs of age. before that i was the top kid in the class, and th...

Another good technique to feel relaxed when talking to girls is to talk to all girls, regardless of how they look. In fact pick the most unattractive girl to say hi to. Can you imagine how she will feel? It will make her day that a boy actually said hi. You might become good friends and you might...

SAD, 3 experiences: 1) when in social situation the anxiety and propensity to get easily flustered and emabarassed remains throughout; 2) anxiety/embarrassment goes up and down throughout ; 3) anxiety/embarrassment goes down after the start. All are extremely uncomfortable, overwhelming, exaspera...

@TempleOfInanna2 ur comments are not correct. people who have high self esteem can also be socially anxious. example. paul mcartney , the beatle. he used to get such social anxiety before a live performance, the smaller and more intimate the gig. to such an extent that in an interview he did once...

I'm 51 years of age, and i have had SAD in varying degrees from severe to mild depending on the situation. Avoidance behaviour has been a big theme for me. After decades of life i now have 1 message that overides all and it is "UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AVOID THE SOCIAL SITUATION". Most times the a...

@TheDangel006 your mother is not the pic of perfection if she treated you like that. Shes a typical dumb assed naive parent ( as most of them are).You dont have to do anything for anyone. You dont have to fix yourself up. You dont have to act, talk, or anything for anyone. The only person who has...

Most people dont recover from social anxiety ( whether they have it severely or mildly). But what i have found is that we are all capable of dealing and coping with it so that we dont avoid the social situation. I think the best thing to do is dont even try to fight the anxiety. Feel it, acknowle...

@celtic4ever18 thanks for replying to me "celtic4ever18". John lennon had a song some of its words were" whatever get u through ur life its alright, do it wrong or do it right, its alright". another time i watched tv and some woman was getting critisized for getting facial surgery. The surgery ma...

Another way to think of SAD is that it is an illness that wont kill you. Its a bit uncomfortable but then it passes ( as Dr. Phil says). Compare our illness to say cancer. I'd much rather go to the doctor and he diagnoses me with SAD than cancer. Imagine him saying to me "Mr. Raccuia you have SA...

@MeesterMC Advice, get to a doctor immediately
