Do you have social anxiety? What do you do about it?
I'm more than sure that i had it once (not a long time ago). But when i overcame my anxiety (it was a hard one - couldn't even go to a store without that bad feeling), for a some period of time things were pretty good, i was communicating with people, having new acquaintances. But then at some point i just stopped doing that, i mean all the communication stuff.
I'm still not comfortable around people. But now it's not because i'm scared, but because i don't really want to be around them. Could my sociophobia turn to sociopathia? Anyway, even my loneliness doesn't motivate me to go contact someone.
Tbh I'm not sure what advice to give you. I'm pretty sure I've got some sort of social anxiety, but it's not overly crippling to me. It's just that I'm afraid of ambiguous social situations and crowds. I'll avoid going to restaurants or cafes because I don't want to talk to the staff, and I never pay in cash because I find it hard to interact that ...... 2 reply
