I don't think I have social anxiety but I'm sure I did at the beginning of the school year. I would get so nervous and stiff around people, and people thought I was mute :) I would start sweating and getting shivers. Its the last quarter and I dont flush and I'm not that stiff anymore, but I still haven't made a single friend. Its so hard to talk to people.. When its time for a presentation my breath would just start violently shaking and I can't form words, I would even start crying after. I don't know if I have social phobia anymore because I'm more free, its just with presentations, being invited with people to play with them, raising my hand (I've only raised my hand twice in the entire school year) and yeah.. I know people will not pay attention to this, but I just felt like getting this out.. I might delete this later bc I feel stupid. Anyways I'm not self-concious anymore, just those things like I said. If you are struggling with social anxiety, keep your head up :D It will get better, I promise you. I'm actually heading over to middle school next year, so I think I will go back to square one :( If anyone has some advice pls tell me.. I'm so nervous! ✨
Hey! I read your comment and I think it is very relatable for many people. It sounds like you found a way how to cope with your anxiety. You say that you have not made a single friend. Do you avoid talking to people or do you talk to people but you do not make a deeper connection with them? as they say in the video avoidance makes the anxiety stronger. Thank you for sharing a part of your inner world.
@@1thewisejack Hii... Thanks so much for your words! I do avoid people, I'm just really scared to go out there. It feels impossible. I only talk to people who talk to me, but I don't feel any connection with them, and I'm really picky when it comes to friends :) And yes I have found a way to cope and this years goal for me is to put myself out there more, and once again, thanks for you words 😊
You have described social anxiety to a T. You should seek help so to can be more confident and deal with those fears in a healthy way but if you are that nervous and avoid those situations then you most likely have social anxiety.
Meditate every morning before school. Put on earphones and hear, Louise Haye. Mel Robbin’s. Also, read books on Anxiety and self-confidence, go to the library. God loves You❤️💕
I’m an adult 62yo I always thought I was strange & dumb, bc I never knew what was wrong with me so I avoided a life of opportunities. But I have to say, my strength & belief in God helped me push through life. Now I finally discovered I had social phobia, since I was young. It’s never too late to heal, for all those ppl who’s suffered mentally over the years! God bless you have faith things will be better❤
Maybe that's what I have. I don't connect with people at all; I don't fit in; and I've lost countless jobs. I try to be nice, but it doesn't seem to work. I've basically just shut down and not care anymore; It has helped believe it or not. I have excepted the fact that I'm not liked and that I seem not to connect, but I except it and go on. When I cared, it bothered me, now that I've excepted it, I'm more at peace. I don't talk that much anyone, not even to family members. I am literally alone, but there is a joy at the same time.

This is exactly how i feel. When i cared about everything i felt very depressed, now i don't care and feel such a sense of relief. I feel that's a better place to be in.
@@gemma8611 I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one. By separating myself from certain people, I don't have to walk on eggshells anymore, neither argue. People suck sometimes!! I'm sorry; they to me are so weird; but if you are normal, and acting normal, then you are considered a lame (in the which I proudly embrace). I haven't even owned a television in over 15yrs, I like reading and just knowing what's going on around me. I'm just a person that doesn't enjoy "cake and circuses ". I hate to bore you with this but look at our world; the oceans ecosystem is being disrupted by over fishing and pollution; they are thinking about mining the moon for Helium 3 for "fusion energy ", and ESG scores could be the thing of the future that determines whether or not if you will qualify for a loan or not. But Basketball, Entertainment and the Kardashians are more important. Sorry, this is just me being lame I guess, but for me, the whole world is full of idiots. The thousands of satellitesthat we have in orbit tears up (just like every other electronic device through planned opalescence) and where does the tore up satellite go? To the space "JUNKYARD". There is a junkyard in space. Idiots lol. I know it's a little off topic but I'm venting right now! Lol.
It bothers me when my nervousness begins to show. My hands shake and sometimes I have neck spasms and my head jerks. I’m afraid of people seeing this. And they do. It’s a vicious cycle. After it’s over is the worst and I know it’s what I tell myself but I feel embarrassed and I can’t seem to stop it.
I don’t know if it’s social anxiety, but everytime I try to do a presentation my voice starts to become shaky and sounds like I want to cry, my heart starts to beat fast, sweaty, and people would start to laugh at me 💔
What if I've found that exposure isn't really helping me? I get EXTREMELY stressed out each week before my conference calls and each week it's the exact same.

today i was giving a speech infornt my class and i messed it up...when the previous student was giving his speech.. i could hear my heart beating so fast...my social anxiety start hitting me and I was trembling...when my chance came...I was feeling that I would faint cuz to fear...seeing the paper I started giving speech but words were not coming out of my mouth...my voice was like I will cry anytime and everyone was thinking that I was crying...after coming back to my seat I was shaking so much...I am so embarrassed that I can't even speak a sentence fluently by looking at the paper ...also while eating in class my hands shake so much and it gets worse when I try to eat with a spoon... and what bothers me is that I have to re-speech in front of the whole school without seeing the paper. ....and I'm so afraid of the consequences😢
Im sorry Anshita but you’ve got this, jus breath and believe that you are capable of doing this speech. I suffer the same way and at 27years old, it feels extremely immature but I cant shake it off. So remember you are not alone. BREATH BREATH BREATH X
Me too.... mujhe aisi situation mein nausea hone lgta hai....chakkar aate hai...😥😥... i have social anxiety 😥.. from childhood.... but support from nowhere 😖😖😖

I'm sorry, but this is just asking a person like me to lie to themselves when the negative thoughts you have may not be real. In my life, for 3 years I was more confident and popular so know how it looks and feels to be liked, and how it is to be disliked. You're just asking people to lie to themself rather than treat the self-hatred and confusion about yourself and what you've do e wrong in a social situation.
