hi
im exactly the same as you. Sometimes I get so terrified i just root to the spot. I dont want to move as im in such fear and im afraid il cause myself to do something (like faint) if I move. it seems stupid thinkin about it now, but im terrified at the time. My dad took me school one mornin and I didnt want to get out the car either!

I can't even go to school.

I'm pretty much at home all the time, and when I do go places I sit in my car trying to persuade myself that everything will be okay.

Hard to say, 'cause I have a lot of problems other than SA. I can't go to school, but I can go anywhere else as long as my mum is there. I've never in my life left home alone. I have friends, but they're all online. I had like three friends offline, but they gave up on me.

to thelostworld,
i am exactly the same as you except when i have speeches in school i either sag in the pouring rain in the woods at the back of my school or pretend to be ill.
when i have drama or again, a speech, i either go to extreme lengths to avoid it or go through with it and suffer constantly throughout.
when it is the morning of the dreaded event, i watch my dad drive away in the car with a massive lump in my throat and just want to die!
im only a kid i dont deserve this. what have i done wrong? why cant i be like every other kid? normal.

about a year ago i went to a museum with my brother, his wife, and their kids. i drank just over a pint of whiskey before leaving, about an hour later, at the museum. we saw this machine that took your heart rate. they all rated as normal 60-80 i think, not sure anymore. my heart rate, even after that much whiskey, was 3 times the normal rate. other then that I'm housebound with no friends, can't even talk to my own family, and have had two nervous breakdowns from trying to lead a normal life and going to school.

but at least i got some pizza, so i'm still happy. :wink:

I can't go anywhere that is busy, if i have to go shopping i go at the quietest times and i can not stand in a queue unless someone is with me, i can't use public transport, get in a cab, go to the cinema or restaurants, i have 2 friends who i hardly ever see cos i can't face it, i talk to them online most of the time but i've explained my situation and they are really understanding, basically i can't go anywhere that is busy and i sometimes end up sat in my car not being able to get out. I have a 2 year old son and i really don't want to pass this on to him.m :cry:

My SA is extreme I would say. Without taking Xanax I would be house bound unless I was going out with someone and not alone. In fact I doubt that I could even live alone unless I took Xanax. Anyone else have it this bad?
