@ComicPenius I think I need to try them I guess to see how they work for me. But thats interesting, thanks for the advice :)

@liamlloyd77 It's different for everyone but for me, they just make me feel much less stressed and calmer and more care-free. I can control myself in situations I fear rather than getting wound up and panicky. I can actually participate in a group discussion rather than sitting there, terrified of having a panic attack.

@ComicPenius what do anti-depressants do? Do they just make you feel happy or do they make social situations easier or what? Thanks

whether it be that one close friend or a teacher or your family or even a psychologist or psychiatrist. I started taking medication for it and it honestly did help me a lot. If you have a negative attitude you need to change that. you have to love yourself before you can love anyone else or be loved. believe me you'll get through it if you really want too.

I had really bad social anxiety when i was younger. social anxiety is something you CAN come over. I'm proof of that. The key for me was I had a really good teacher who I could talk to. I'm gay and I literally felt like there was something wrong with me. I used to avoid social situations, i used to be so afraid of people finding out. However I learned that I'm fine just the way I am and that everyone is different. I learned to love myself and u will too. The key is having people to talk to

I used to have social anxiety REALLY bad. I was the kid that sat in the back of the class, tried to avoid presentations, etc. I still have anxiety but it's not nearly as bad as before.My only "secret" was I did everything to change myself. Don't listen to people about that "Be yourself" bullshit. I started getting on the treadmill, lost 40 pounds, got some highlights, started wearing Hollister instead of walmart clothes... Then bam, ppl naturally started talking to ME. Does good for confidence.
