I realize there is a depression forum, but I figure this one gets more traffic. Just wondering... does anyone here who has social anxiety not suffer from depression too???

I think that SA is often the result of your family environment. Parents are supposed to help kids build a positive self image. without that, you feel worthless and think everyone else sees you the same way. If you met yourself at a social gathering, you wouldn't get along.
I think I'm pretty much depressed, stressed out.
Yeah you can ask, I'm depressed becuase my family is crazy and falling apart and everyone is on my back about a job when I'm payin my bills and doing my part, I'm filling out applications. I got school starting on monday and I'm ready but I'm not entirely. My car is probably completely messed up when it was tripping out on the freeway. I can't afford that right now. I'm just alone and it feels like something bad is going to happen soon, I don't know what...
I liken Social phobia to a bad tasting cake.Its just full of all nasty ingredients. :evil: Mix up a bit of depression, dose of anxiety, a sprinkling of mood swings and all the other crap that goes with it and ooooooohhh that tastes bad.For me personally social phobia and depression cannot be separated but it is easier to manage when you only have to deal with one at a time.When they are both hitting together, that's living life in a deep valley thats hard to escape.And you can't just snap out of it.Just got to knuckle down and get through it.
