Yeah but you still haven't answered the question and
There is a BIG QUESTION MARK as to why you are really here
in this forum because there is no way in hell that you have SA
Do you understand what SA is? People with SA are basically afraid
of the outside world. You are the total opposite

Replying to the previous post by prescious . Dont be fooled so easily. LOL These pic dont tell the whole story about most of us on these sites. I f I could figure out how to post my most recent pictures form our pirate fest down here you might not think of me being shy. I actualy enjoyed the parade and barely felt any discomfort but if you ask me why on this rare moment in a crowd of over a million people why I had barely any anxiety I couldn't tell you.
But all of the pic people post are the one they chose and people usualy pick pictures that look ok as compare to posting a picture when we are not feeling too good.
You know what meow, obviously you are offended because I hit a nerve
but on the other hand if you read my posts very carefully, you
would see that what I am saying to you is not so much of an insult
but rather a compliment. Because basically I am saying is that
you are too pretty and you go out to restaurants too much to
have SA. People with Social Anxiety DO NOT GO OUT. And if they
do like myself, it's once in a while and it hurts them to go out. Or
they go out only in extreme emergency cases like their hungry
or something but other than that people with real SA do not go out
OR they are extremely nervous and self conscious and very
uncomfortable when they go out so they stay home like the rest
of this forum
Now I don't know you and I haven't read the rest of your posts but
to me it doesn't matter what you've written in the rest of your posts
I was just pointing out a fact and the fact is that people with SA
do not go outside or they are very uncomfortable around people
so they stay home. You are too pretty to have SA and you have
proven it by going to that restarant. That is something that most
people with SA would never do. Most people with SA do not have
friends and I bet you that you have friends. People with SA do not
go outside but you go to restarants AND OH MY GOD, YOU MODEL
case closed! You may be depressed but I don't think you
have SA. There is a big difference between depression and SA
Oh well meow I am not trying to insult you so forgive me if
you think I am but I am just pointing out a fact. The fact is that
I don't think you have SA. But anyways whatever your agenda
here is, I guess I should mind my business and worry
about my own problems. I need to try and cure my SA
and my Agoraphobia which I truly know I have

TAMPA-BAY which one are you? because everyone in that photo is VERY good looking! And i'd also like to thank you for your previous post because I think Prescious was exremely out of line, and you were very correct with everything you wrote.
Prescious, honestly how dare you. Look how long I have been on this site, read my previous posts and see if I have EVER mocked ANYONE on this site. I have been nothing but kind, I've made posts asking for help and I think it's absoloutely horrible of you to judge someone by the way they look.
Yes, SOMETIMES I can face bars, SOMETIMES, I can face crowds. But for the last 3 months I have locked myself up in my house and only driven my car twice. I have driven my only 2 friends here away because I can't make myself go out with them. I self harm and have even cut my face recently. I have BPD, SA, SAD, Pannic attacks and Depression. I am on 3 pills of klonopin a day and have tried many anti depressents to try and help especially with my anxiety. Ask me something and I will know it because I have LIVED it and I DO live it.
What right do you have to jump to conclusions on the way someone looks? I live with this every day of my life.
I haven't been able to work. I've had 2 temporary jobs in 4 years. I've been to many psychiatrists and psychologists.
I do some modeling here and there, I model for a popular website but please tell me how that proves I do not have SA? How do any of these pics prove I don't have SA? They're PHOTOS, you don't know me and i'm glad you don't.
NEVER judge a book by it's cover. What about the celebrities who have had SA? I look the way I look. What am I supposed to look like to fit the criteria of having SA?

Hello prescious maby you have agrophobia and not social anxiety?
Hi Tampa I have both because when I do go outside, I get really nervous
my heart kind of beats fast, I think that everybody is watching me,
I think that everybody is judging me, I think that everybody is talking
about me so then I stay home. I go outside when I go to work which
I dread. But I only work once in a while. But when I do work or when
I do go outside, these are the symptoms I experience. And then
I am also agoraphobic because I stay home alot and I refuse to go
outside except only when absolutely necessary. I'm also diagnosed
Bipolar with BDD too
Your posts to Meow are not complimentary but are rude. Do you really think that every person with SA can't go to a pub? Why don't you share the other places we can't go and a list of the the physical features we all must share to identify ourselves.

Thank you Bluenow, Jus and Tampa-Bay.
Precious, what you're describing about not being able to go out is Agoraphobia. What makes you think every person with SA can NEVER go out? what about the people here on SA with jobs? how is that different to going to a restaurant? you're still around people it doesn't mean you're comfortable.
Like I said, SOMETIMES I can go out, sometimes I can't. Sometimes I pannic in the supermarket and break out in a nervous rash and blush. I have plenty of symptoms of SA and have been diagnosed with it for 8 years.
Yes I was VERY offended by your post because I don't think the way someone looks has ANYTHING to do with SA or not. Personally I don't find myself very attractive, I see A LOT of faults in myself. I wasn't sure if you were judging me on piercings/tattoos or my looks in general. I'm not flattered or complimented that you find me pretty, I am quite disgusted at your attitude. Yes I do SOME modeling, which means I fit the criteria of what these people are looking for but it doesn't mean I love myself.
You really don't know as much as you think you know, try listening to what EVERYONE else is telling you, how come no one is agreeing with you? Because you're wrong, and i'm insulted to come on here for help and to be told I do not have something because of the way I look
Also it's quite an insult to others who have posted their pictures here and in the photoalbum. So they don't meet your standards of what attractive is? Since they can have SA but I can't?... being "pretty" how rude.

Uh, yeah there's a difference in SA and agoraphobia.
If you look up the definition of SA, it won't say that you can't leave your house. I go to restaurants sometimes too. It doesn't change all the thoughts and worries I have when people look at me. Sometimes I love shopping but there's dread and fear no matter where I go. It is easier to stay home but I'm not agoraphobic. For you to underestimate the severity of someone else's SA is offensive to people.
I don't understand SA'ers who hate hate hate being judged.....yet they do it to other people.
Prescious, how on earth can you judge if someone has SA or not by a simple picture?! That's unbelievable to me. Really it is. So you say Meow is way too pretty to have SA. What exactly do people with SA look like? I wasn't aware there was a certain look. I'm sure you do not like being judged so why are you doing it to other people? You asked Meow what her agenda was here. But I'd like to know what exactly is YOUR agenda here? Most people come to this site to ask advice or share their stories, not to start stuff with other people. So why are you here?
I get judged all the time for how I look and I hate it. People think that because you have pretty packaging everything else should be amazing and you should be this happy confident person with no problems. Being pretty doesn't protect you from harm or change the way you have learned to react to things. Ive been told Im pretty but it doesn't take the inner pain away. How awful for you to judge people in that way.
I think maybe you shoulld look at that opinion again but Im guessing what has happened is that you would like to be beautiful and feel your not and think that if you were everything in your life would be fine because you would have more confidence etc..if you were thinkinf this dont be fooled as being beautiful doesn't give you a direct pass to happiness it's appreciating your own inner beauty that makes you happy
