Yeh if ever the opportunity arose for that to happen I would be more then happy to meet up...just can't wait to meet a fellow sp sufferer would be a bit weird at first but would be kinda cool, wonder if there r any support groups in brisbane.

Hi im from brisbane. I think i may have a mild form of social phobia. I often make excuses not to go out with people. I hate talking to people on the phone and whenever i talk with people apart from really one close friend all i can think about is ending the convo and leaving. Can anyone advise what steps i can take to treat this or people in the area that i can talk to? its catch 22. You need to talk to someone to treat it, but the very nature of the condition makes you avoid seeing people.

Hi zentron, it definitely sounds like sp you have there, I don’t know of any ppl in your area that can treat it, but it is probably best to get treatment now while it is mild before it worsens, bout the only thing you should do is go see your gp or see a therapist that has delt with sa/sp. the only other thing you can do is find out as much as you can about it (like visiting these forums etc so you can learn what things triggers it and to avoid safety behavious etc). i'm going to be seeing a therpist soon about it myself, treatment is often CBT cognitive behavioural therapy....welcome to forum btw

Thanks for the advice. Therapy is definately something ive been thinking more about lately, i spose now its just a matter of finding one that isnt overly expensive.
