Hopefully i'm not the only one here that gets nervous leaving home. When I'm getting ready to go somewhere i instantly get the feeling in my stomach and my heart starts beating quicker. It sucks lol its not like a right out panic attack but its fear I guess. I'm going out where everyone is and yeah... I notice that I ALWAYS ALWAYS look for people that might be laughing at me or saying something about me. I feel like no one else has anxiety as bad as me. Stuttering is about the most embressing thing I get so nervous berfore hand and when someone says something to me Its like I cant think then when i do talk a whole lot comes out but its a mess then people either give me a strange look, Just laugh, Make a smart ass comment, Anxiety fing sucks

I used to be exactly like that! Still am some times if i am feeling down. I hate doing new things or things im excited about due to the shaking b4 leaving home and having that feeling in the pit of the stomach. Its really uncomfortable and the last thing u wanna do with those feelings is socialise! Well the only advice I can give is to just go for it. I am comfortable doing most things now...but at 18 i wasnt...it only took a few months to adapt after i started forcing myself out there. Its not easy at first....but now i dont notice the things I do...where as when u have serious anxiety a trip up to the shops becomes memorable due to the effort and mental strain it requires


Like i said, just force urself through it and it will get easier.

Man oh man i Hope it gets easier I havent been on any Meds for a long time I should prolly go and try to find something new to get on. I've been to alot of Diff Doctors one of em said I just need to forget about the anxiety and just do what I need to. He acted like it was hardly a issue! Idk I think He needed to be on something or maybe he already was :lol: I just got out of school and I'm looking for a Job. The first day I went looking I was a nervous wreck the second I thought about. My stomach went crazy on me thats such a terrible terrible feeling! I know I have to fight through it but it sure isnt gonna be easy. The biggest thing that bothers me is how people act while in a convo with me. I'l talk super fast or stutter or both. I dont want people to think im Retarted or whatever people can be really mean with the anxiety issue when someone puts me down It keeps me down for some time after. Thats just like reinforceing the pain that i already have. its like I go out in the public trying to do things and people knock me down so that adds to it and makes me feel worse.
