I lost my girlfriend of 4 years due to my social anxiety. I could afford losing everything else but not her. She was my support, she was everything I had and i lost her....hate myself for having SA now. Its ok (well at least till a point) that i lost friends lost out on fun etc because of SA but when you lose your life's hope it will depress you to such an extent there will be no future whatsoever.
To everyone who has SA : I'm 26 now and have lost everything due to SA. If you have SA then please snap out of it. Or else one day you'll lose whatever you have. If you are young you can at least gain a lot by beating your anxiety. It's late for me now, but for everyone else just try and snap out of it, you don't want to be in my position at my age.
Here is what i went through in my teens and early 20's
Wondering if anyone else can tell me if they had such similar problems?
Then i didn't know better and didn't have anyone to help. Parents used to ridicule me for not going out and i would not be able to defend myself. You yourself don't know that you're suffering so its really crazy.
I had an anxiety attack in front of my girl and all she could was tell me to go see a shrink....i so wanted her to hold my hand. I lost her soon after...
And her loss has put me in so much depression that i see no future for myself. Don't know why i had to be unlucky enough to have SA--it absolutely ruined my life

- Getting scared to go to the shop on the other end of the road
- Running away from parties..not going even when invited
- Scared to go out of my apartment at night
- I would never go to other people's houses.
- would stay at home for days 5 to 10 days continuously
- Joined a library...but didn't go there for 5 to 6 months
- would get bullied easy and would never fit in
