I have visited this site so many times but just couldnt get myself to share my problems with you all. I have SP and i dwell about the unknowns that happens at the work place, mainly meetings. I get panic attacks just thinking about introducing myself in a group situation. I try to avoid meetings at all cost but when i cant i would go to the meetings late on purpose so i would get to introduce myself without waiting for other ppls introductions. I do ok in situations like that but when i have to wait for my turn, thats when i get really bad panic attacks. My heart starts pounding and i have a really hard to breathing. My mind just goes blank and i feel so worthless. Some of my co-workers saw that and i am sure they must have thought i was crazy or stupid. Anyways i lost my job about a year ago and now my phobia has gotten worse. I got offers from other companies right away but i said no to them because i was afraid i would make a fool of myself in the group interview. I constantly worry about whats going to happen to me without a job and now that all my savings are almost gone my situation has gotten worse. Other then this particular problem i can be a very out going person. I go to clubs and parties and seem very out going. I can talk to anybody and everybody. Talking to girls is not a problem and i get hundreds of dates. I hope and wish i can get over my fear of talking in group situations and introductions because its killing me inside for not being normal........please help.
