Hey all I am new

How you doin my name is Chris and I have society anxiety disorder. I have been dealing with S.A.D. for as long as I can remember and I have finally ran out of friends so I am really hoping to meet people I can just talk to about all this who really understands and knows how it feels. I live in the beautiful state of Oregon and I am 22 years old. When I get to the point where I can be myself with someone I consider myself to be a really great person. Otherwise I will continue to TRY and be somebody that I am not and at the same time beat myself up inside for how pathetic I am acting, my lack of proper communication, my nervous body language, and my inability to bond even with my own family! in social situations. This has DESTROYED my life. I have had so many great opportunities that I easily run away from because of this constant fear of rejection and/or awkwardness. Please feel free to add me on facebook https://www.facebook.com/Chrisbcrusty if you can relate and want to get to know me more. If you don't have a facebook I can make a Skype or whatever you prefer using and I look forward to hearing from you. Also I want to say thank you to whoever is responsible for this website. You have given me hope and I really appreciate it.

Welcome to the forum!

Hulloo! Welcome to SPW I know how ya feel, it can really be a pain :/ I've found that just talking to people here and knowing that I'm not alone, has actually helped a bit, and have been overcoming it in some ways. So hope all is uphill from here!

Thank you all! feel free to hit me up and talk about anything, I'll talk to anyone.
