Hey
« on: April 15, 2008, 03:37:42 PM »
My name is nick. I'm 19 and recently just been told I've got social anxiety. To be honest i never thought there was anything strange about me until i came to uni and realized that social situations became increasingly difficult. I avoid many things by looking for a simple loop hole and worst of all sometimes i would convince people they were not having a good time and make them think like me so I could get my way and leave the place I was in with them. It was today that I have finally decided to deal with my problem. I saw the university councillor and i start my sessions beggining of next term. It's a long time away, however he told me to search the web and to look at forums and discuss with other people how they cope with the condition. So here I am. Thank you

Nick

Stops me feeling so isolated. Hope you can find some like minded people maybe you can make it to one of the meets?  Are you attending Brighton uni?
