I think I have social anxiety and I want to know how to deal with it?
It seems like it started probably about 5 years ago, I’m 18 now so I was probably like 14. I have always been a shy, quiet person but have always managed to make friends and maintain relationships pretty effieciently. I still have this problem though- I feel immense pressure is social situations. I always feel like I’m being judged and the feeling is so overpowering that my face tenses up and my cheek starts shaking. It’s really embarrassing and I HATE IT so much. I really want to know how to change it. I have tried these stress management pills but they don’t work, for prom recently I was so nervous- I tried some vodka (not a lot) but it didn’t do anything for me. I have tried sleeping pills and I don’t like them because they make me so tired and I can’t focus. I have tried medicines like nyquil and that makes me a bit drowsy. I just want to know how to change this- it seems like I will never get over it! Please help! Any suggestions! Thanks

im sorry i cant say i know how you feel becaus eim quite the opposite but i can offer some advice?…alright you say you feel pressured and like you’re being judged. Just focus on the fact when people are around you or talking to you that theyre focused on the conversation or whats going on. not how you talkor what youre wearing. Noones pressuring you to do or say anything, you are your own person. Also dont feel like youre being judged just understand that people are focused on other things not you. i hope this will help you some[:
Focus on the people you talk to. The more you can find out about them, the more comfortable you’ll feel around them. Try talking about multiple subjects until you find a subject you find interesting to ignite the conversation. At that point you’ll be so interested in what they have to say that you won’t even feel self-conscious any more. And they’ll feel more comfortable around you because you value what they have to say.
there are medicines that can help you but if you are anything like me they will stop working after you have been on them for a while. going to therapy will probably be your best be to get over the fears you have.
