Hi Frozen in Time,
Ive just read your post, I am sorry you feel so bad and are so alone.
Is there anyone at all you can talk to, like a relative or even your family doctor? or maybe chatting to people online in one of the SA chat rooms?
Im sorry, I suppose I just wanted to make contact, say hallo and say I would be happy to chat online if you would like to. I hope things get better for you,

Hi Frozen in Time
Im afraid I may have blundered a bit
I didnt think to look at your profile, but having done so, I have discovered that you are female(which is fine, not a problem)
pretty young(im 50, so anyone under 40 is young and you were born in 1988, I am old enough to be your grandfather )
and what else, yes, I live in Stockport which is far to close to where you live
No one will believe that mine was an innocent post
Im sorry for the above mad speel, but I got really worried when I saw your profile that people would think I was chasing you, so I thought I would explain my mistake. It was probably not a good idea suggesting chatting online
I really hope that things get better for you, is there anyone you could talk to like a close relative, your family doctor or maybe a lecturer at college?
Very best wishes, and I really hope things get better for you,
Anthony

Hey ya Anthony, no need to worry about that, I can't even remember what I put on my profile...I think I better check it out before I get into trouble! Thanks for the concern, I do appreciate it. The problem is, I don't have anyone that I could really express my feelings to, one being that I'm ever so shy, and two, I have many restrictions...I won't go into detail now. Thanks for replying to my post...I was beginning to think that people were ignoring me, yet again!

Just thought I would say hi as I am from the UK. I feel similar to you frozen in time. Somedays I can go without speaking to anyone without any trouble, infact that is most days, as I don't count going into a shop etc as having a conversation.
Which annoys me more than anything as it isn't how I want to be.

hey frozen in time dont worry so much we are all in the same boat.Im as lonely as you can imagine weve just got to think positively,im hoping to get the courage to attend a meeting with fellow sufferers as im desperate to make new friends with sa,as i have slowly lost contact with a lot of old friends.
I know what you're going through. All I can advise is not to give up hope. Talk to your doctor. Be open. You'll be amazed at how understanding people will be. G.P.'s see people with anxiety disorders everyday! Social Phobia (SP),is very common. I know you can't see it now, but there is every possibility that you can conquer SP with the right treatment such as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT).
Remember, you've always got this website if you're feeling down or lonely!
