We do have a social phobia chat room for us, social phobia world members. It is above the #shyroom choice. Maybe if more of us visited this room we would be able to chat with people who can understand us more, each other. I also tried the #shyroom and I kind of agree with Johno. The people there do not want us and are not very friendly.
Another social phobia world user told me that she also came across a guy with serious problems, she said he kept talking about his obsession for young preteen girls. I don’t know about you all, but I do not feel this chat room is safe either. Not informing you all about this problem would not be right. It does not mean that all #shyroom members are pedophiles, but one or a few may be lurking among them. Just be careful and parents make sure you know who your children are chatting with.
