After a few minutes of looking at the posts, I usually decide I don't really fit in here. It seems like everyone else here has a lot more social life, or they're teenagers in school. I start thinking things like, How can people here say they have social phobia or social anxiety and at the same time mention having friends or going to work or going to school? Why do they take seriously the idea that they have a disorder and need a diagnosis and might even have something abnormal about their brains so that it might even make sense to take drugs or some other extreme, health-risking treatment, when they are in fact living just like other people, going to school or work, having friends, going out and meeting people, and so on, they're just a little uncomfortable about it and think they could do better?
Hi Sde. Don't defeat urself b-4 giving urself a chance! Some people here are in a more sensitive state of SA than others. You'll fit in where You fit in! & you'll add something to the forum just by sharing ur thoughts & concerns. Maybe someone will learn from you or identify with u. Give urself an opportunity!

I joined the site a couple weeks ago. I think it's really good and there's a lot more people here posting than other sites i have been too. Haven't really said much. I like the chat room also.
