I’ve never been in a social situation where I felt I truly belonged. Even within my family I feel like an outside observer more than a member.

That would be generalized social anxiety. I get that 100%. No place with people is “safe”, and anxiety worsens around people who we see the most often (because the more time someone has spent around us, the more they have adjusted to viewing us as awkward anxious people who they want to avoid). For us generalized SA folks, social anxiety is a self-fulfilling prophesy. It can’t be improved by “going out and being socially courageous, expecting rejection and being emboldened by knowing we’re doing what we believe in”, as the presenter suggested. In fact, that makes it WORSE, because the negative experiences that inevitably result from those “courageous” outings give us yet another proof of why we should be anxious and avoid people.
The solution is a proper therapy program which is tailored to severe SA, created by a therapist who had severe generalized SA themselves. It’s a unique disorder in that it can’t be understood or effectively treated by someone who doesn’t truly understand it…

@RemovePutin I may be on the spectrum; unconfirmed. I struggle to comprehend social cues.
I’ve gotten better with casual interactions. The anxiety kicks in when I consider closer friendships or, worse, romantic interests. I get caught up in expectations that I kinda prefer rejection, or just talk myself out of it.

why do you people think that you have to tell us you doing better with socializing or it’s generally better not to feel anxious about it. It’s everything matter of attitude and time. There is nothing wrong with feeling anxious about socializing. Be more humble and true to yourself and anxiousness will disappear. We are all same humans with a lot of differences but still the same ashes.

See I have the exact opposite problem, bouncing off of someone in a very topical conversation like that is fine for me, but as soon as I have to make formal speeches I fumble my words and feel like I’m just a monotone robot, and it turns into a feedback loop of not being able to focus

I severely lessoned my social anxiety by accepting those things about me that caused my fear of rejection. I did that by interacting with my critical internal voice differently. Before I would run away from it or try to suppress it, but I realized (with some help) that it was in its own messed up way trying to help me. By acknowledging that it was valid and that it had a place at my internal table of voices it then knew that it did not need to speak because I always had its’ best interests at heart. Since then it has largely been silent when I look in the mirror and by extension going out and being in social situations has largely been anxiety free — not zero, but very manageable.

If you switch embarrassment with rejection is is still social anxiety. I hate feeling embarrassed. All I know is I don’t like talking to people I just want to be able to do it without the negative side effects. So I can be comfortable at work and not feel like I need to quit or have a breakdown because people keep asking me questions.

Change your habits and routines
– Limit phone usage (Start by reducing to half)
– Interact w/strangers on a regular basis (Aim for three a day)
– Don’t overstimulate (Let go, don’t try)
– Look good, feel good (Helps w/confidence)
– Isolation is the dream killer (Don’t be a recluse)
– There is no magic pill (Process of elimination)

I’ve always been bullied by girls since I was little because my jaw was too far in, I developed social anxiety, I literally have no friends, I can’t even look girls in the eye. I’m 26 years old and I’ve never had a girlfriend because I’m afraid of being rejected.

Rejection is not it at all. I don’t relate to that. For me, it’s about wasting time with people who I can only just sit and observe, it’s me being uncomfortable in a meaningless situation when I could rather give myself something to enjoy like reas a book, or watch a good series.
