From Galway!

Aged 34 male.

SA has been my cancer.

Restricted me in so many ways.

It hurts to see peers with partners and children.

Anyone else relating to that?

Hi everyone.

I'm from Fermoy, which is in County Cork.

I'm a friend of Tucker, who started this thread, though he doesn't seem to post to this forum anymore.

I'm 26 years old and have been shy my whole life. I developed full-blown Social Anxiety when I was about 16 i.e. that is when I started avoiding social situations.

On top of having general SAD, I also have a specific form of social anxiety, known as Paruresis or Bashfull Bladder. Basically, what this means is that I have difficulty in urinating in public toilets i.e. in bars, airports, shopping centres etc. Even a lot of fellow SA sufferers seem to have difficulty in understanding Paruresis, or that it is a form of Social Anxiety, so I often feel very isolated.

If anyone wants to send me a personal message or an e-mail, I'd love to hear from you. My e-mail is: rk80ie@yahoo.co.uk

Hope to hear from some of you soon.
