Hello. My name is Michael and i'm 14 years old. I do not nknow if I have social phobia or not. My "symptoms" include:
Extreme Fear of going into new classrooms[I just entered High School].
Fear of speaking aloud if more than 2 or 3 students.
Few friends, called "just shy".
Will fight to prevent having to go iinto new room.
My fears have gotten worse as I got older. I've been scared of talking for years, but now I refuse to go or do anything that is socially involving.
I'll hang out with my cousin[s], but not with their friends.
I'm very emotionally fragile. Will break if hear crying or extreme distress from others. I know that I waaaaaaaay more than "just shy", but can't find what. Schizotypal, Avoidant, Or Social annxiety? Please help me out, and makem e feel welcome. *runs and hides while waiting for critisism*
I think it's so cool that you're 14 and you are able to face this. Some of us (me) will ignore it and pretend you are just a rebel and a loner.
I'm not sure if it's social anxiety or not. You sound sensitve, cool. There aren't enough sensitive people out there (at least that I know of).
It's great that you're looking into this because it will probably make school easier.
