Hi everyone! We released several videos yesterday including one on the types of anxiety (similar to a crash course). Social anxiety disorder was mentioned in the video and many of you asked us to make one on this topic. Here you go! Previous video: ruclips.net/video/RuPPRLv_YSw/видео.html
Thank you guys so mu h for making this. Legit social anxiety came with my manic bipolar and it's ended up leading to me getting a service dog. Gotta love mental health.
@@VinccentVanGogh maybe send her this video an/or tell her per text when she isn't hone, that way you will have some time to yourself to calm down and process how you'll react once she's home (since she'll prob confront you about it)
My social anxiety is so bad omg. I remember one day when i was in middle school, i asked my teacher to not make me present my project, but she said i would fail if not. While i was presenting istg i thought i was gonna faint. My heart was beating hella fast, i couldn't even speak properly, felt like i couldn't breathe, i was shaking and extremely light headed. I just think teachers should be more informed about mental issues like social anxiety before forcing triggers upon students unknowingly.
ugh I know that feeling, I hate that because I’ve always being good in studies but presentations were so hard for me. I looked dumb and unprepared a lot of times, like reading my script without looking up and with my hands shaking. I couldn’t even read it well. Now I hide my irrational nervousness better but it’s still there. Yeah it’s important to know how to talk in public and all that shit but... It’s really unfair to some people, because they never teach you techniques to calm yourself or something like that, they’re just like “don’t get nervous” 😀.
I relate so much. I one time had a really rough month where my social anxiety was more bad than any other months and I had to presented my presentation and I literally BEGGED my teacher not to do it she said I have to or she will give me an F so I asked if I at least can do it at my seat she said no I have to go in front of the class but I was able to sit on a chair I got red as heck my heart started racing so fast and I was sweating a bit I thought too that I will faint and I the whole time just talked quiet stuttert and looked at my notes I avoided eye contact it was a disaster. I was able to pass it luckily but I was so close of to fail it. It was just extreme for me
I feel that :( it’s extremely ableist when teachers dock points off your grade for not being able to make eye contact, hands shaking, etc. during presentations. Teachers should be more aware about mental illnesses and disabilities and listen to the student.
Exactly, teachers should not force the socially anxious students to answer in front of so many people. These days during the online classes, it is even more pathetic, they threaten you to switch on your camera and microphones to answer or else they will mark us absent and attendance affects the academy. I always break down when my teacher forcefully makes me answer. UGH! btw, i'm one of your subscribers, didn't know you are socially anxious too. i love your videos, we're from the same fam (coz kpop, bruh)
Honestly same :/ i was like that 2 weeks ago when someone was able to talk to someone easy when for me I’m just like puts my head down and not want to make eye contact
I could remember several years ago I was diagnosed with ADHD. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source. I'm 64 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Greece. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.Burkeshroom . I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I hate that psilocybin gets grouped with drugs like cocaine and heroin. Mushrooms are a remedy, not a vice! I went on a microdose treatment for a couple of months and within the first week, every sight of a cigarette got me questioning why I was doing all that to myself. It really works.
childhood. It was relentless. I assumed it would ultimately end me somehow. About twelve years ago I randomly accepted the offer from a friend of a few doses of mushrooms. I did them two consecutive nights alone. First night was pretty mild. The second night? Wow. I saw my depression from every angle, realized much. Next day: depression totally gone. Never came back, never coming back. It's like it's a forest far away I can remember, and could probably find again with enough effort, but it has zero impact on anything in my life or mind. They honestly saved my life and improved it immensely. I never did them again, either. I wish there was a good, organized way to administer them to people who would benefit from them.
When you want to be in the corner but you also don’t want anyone seeing you in the corner cause you don’t want them to think that you’re asocial and you have no friends even tho that’s what’s going on.
Even when i talk with friends, i feel like they arent actually interested and when Im walking down the street alone It feels like everyone is waching and hating😢
Ughh I kinda feel like I do have social anxiety. I have for a while. But I can’t get professionally diagnosed because I can’t tell anyone. Idk what to do.
My family say to me- "why do you distance yourself from people?" "be close to people, make friends." "Be social " "Look at them, they are having fun together. Why don't you join them? " ... I can't.
I am sad even on my birthday, it feels like this is worst day for the world, I am going through depression also and social anxiety too. I am tired of living like this 😔
My family used to dragged me out of my room by forced once in a while And when we need to attend a family gathering i would cry saying i don't wanna go...
Wow everything that she mentioned indicates that i have that kind of illness especially when i go outside but when i am alone it feels kinda soothing and peacefull.
And i don't think i have anxiety but i guess im really shy when im at the store there will always (sometimes) be an enploye to help me fine the stuff right. Well i freak out i like to fine the stuff on my own but there just doing there job. But it freaks me out i will be very shy and i hate that
no, i think telling a person with SAD to just talk is worse. (i don’t think i have SAD btw so idk BUT . . . as an asthmatic, we have our inhalers and yes, it is near impossible to breath but medications help a ton :3 i think there are very few medications with SAD? idk lol
"It doesn't go away with familiarity" that one is the hardest for me. It is horrible to feel like you are about to meet someone for the first time everytime you meet with a friend that you have known for years. It never goes away. I have lived with 2 friends for years and I would still get anxiety whenever I would leave my room. Sometimes to the point where I would need to go to the bathroom and hold it in until they would leave. And these are two people thay I considered my best friends....
1. Fear of being judged 2. Your anxiety feels out of hand 3. It interferes with your performance 4. It affects your relationships 5. It doesn’t go away with familiarity 6. You overanalyse everything 7. You avoid social situations 8. You have physical symptoms
Yeah. For me I’m pretty sure it’s just people in general. I’m pretty much terrified of people and like to stick to myself a lot. Can’t even talk to teachers or go over to other people or even ask my parents or guardians a question because Ill always think they’ll hate me or be mad at me afterward.
People in general Haha one time my dad asked me why I feel uncomfortable when people touch me like anywhere I said idk and he called me un rational haha
It depends. For example I feel comfortable with my family and a small number of friends. With the rest of the people I know I feel pretty uncomfortable
I hate that feeling. Especially when my parents make me go out in public. I hate it. I don’t like being near people. I always have the feeling of crying when I go out to public. My hearts races so fast I can feel it. It’s the worst. My parents really don’t understand, they just think I’m weird, but they don’t know that sometimes I go through that. Edit 8/30/23: Bro, this was 3 years. I just found this comment 😭 I don’t really have social anxiety anymore. Sure, I do get shy and all sometimes, but I really stopped caring which proves that it does get better. Everything is better when you stop caring. It’ll take a lot time to recover from social anxiety, but it’s possible. Gosh, I was so emo 3 years ago 💀this is making me cringe
I dont even like standing in the corner in a public situation because I’m scared people will notice I’m alone and judge me for not interacting or giving me weird looks
The harsh reality is that no matter how hard you try to break out of it it always seems to come back after doing good for a short period of time. Sometimes I will be confident for a small period and think that I figured it out, but then wake up the next morning and it’s like a reset button and I have to start all over again😔. I pray abt it to go away in hopes that one day I won’t be held back by anxiety and can live freely.
I have even chosen a career path of coaching so that I can be uncomfortable and break out of this anxiety. I am daily looking for ways to challenge myself which is so hard because I am suffering the whole way through. I wish I could stay in my room at home and be safe from interactions to be at peace, but I know how important it is to my future and my future family that I can be a man that is not held back by a mental illness despite how hard it is to go through. I would not wish social anxiety on anyone and wish that people would be more aware of how challenging it is. I can’t even fathom waking up and not being anxious. I really try to hide it all with fake confidence but it has been taking a toll on my mind for so many years and feel caged up in my mind no matter how hard I try to resist. Anyone who struggles with a similar situation I feel your pain and hope that one day we can feel free to be ourselves. Despite how you may feel with this mental illness, it doesn’t not make you any less of a man or weak. Fighting something like this makes you a stronger individual than the average man. God gives his toughest battles to his toughest soldiers🙌🏻
@@stvrrlight7 just remember no ones perfect and your only benefiting yourself asking where the dish soap is. Plus how often to you pay attention to other people’s flaw. I know I’m focused on my own world I don’t even noticed love u
Don't worry- you are not alone. Just remember everything will be okay, people may be judging, but don't let that stop you. It is completely normal to feel awkward, scared, shy, anxious or panic when you felt like you faced too many people. Take a deep breath and believe in yourself, relax, trust me, if you have true friends, they won't judge you at all. Even if there's cases where you are invited to a party, it's your choice and i'm sure they will understand. But why don't overcome your fears? Believe in yourself and people, believe that they won't press you, and it should be easy. Just don't rush, there's time, when you are ready, stand up and strike a conversation. Here's a small tip, be yourself, be natural, don't rehearse conversations and topics, just let it flow to you. Friendly and comfortable conversations are when it's not forced and it comes out of your mind. Hopes this helps, i once have social anxiety myself, i believe in you, you can do it too. ❤️
@@samuels1506 No sht. I'm working as promoter and seller to overcome my social anxiety and the amount of awkward moments gives me nightmare during night. But that's how it's is. Life is hard :(
chxcomilki i feel exactly the same way, i told my mom that there’s something wrong with me and i listed everything wrong and she said “it’s ok you’ll get through it, we’re going to the doctor tomorrow and tell her.” and it took all the confidence in my soul to tell her that. so i’m going to the doctor tmr to see if i have SAD
Evelyn Santana i havent told my mom about the social anxiety thing but i did went to the doctor for depression and i got diagnosed with depression but now i’m doing better, good luck tho
I'm a veteran, was actually addicted to alcohol and cigarettes. I suffered severe anxiety and mental disorder. Got diagnosed with cptsd. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. This is something that really need to be use globally to help people with related health challenges.
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
YES very sure of Dr.alishrooms. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place. Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac. He's constantly talking about killing someone. He's violent. Anyone reading this Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
I was horrifically depressed since childhood. It was relentless. I assumed it would ultimately end me somehow. About twelve years ago I randomly accepted the offer from a friend of a few doses of mushrooms. I did them two consecutive nights alone. First night was pretty mild. The second night? Wow. I saw my depression from every angle, realized much. Next day: depression totally gone. Never came back, never coming back.

Living with social anxiety, when you succesfully speak with a stranger it feels like a big accomplishment, but if you fail it feels like the world is ending
Having social anxiety is like difficulty to make eye contact to someone , Being quiet and alone in school , Fear of being judged , Meeting new people or making new friend will be difficult and people will find it hard to understand to you and the only things they will said is you have to talk more or you have to stop being shy . I seriously hate all this it ruined my life so much
I told my mom that I think I might have social anxiety and she said “everyone goes through it” soo..that went well. Edit: sorry:( I can’t reply to all of the comments but I’m sorry that you guys have to go through the same thing😔
Omg same! I keep on telling my parents I need to seek help but they will just say, it's normal to feel stressed, you just lack confidence. I missed my basketball trials cause I had a panic attack in front of older boys and had to leave the facility as my heart rate was too high. I dont think that's lack of confidence bro
Phoenix zard One time, I played table tennis because I volunteered. I regretted it. I lost at that time because I have zero experience in sports. I was shaking so much because there was a lot of people and I couldn't concentrate. I went to the comfort room and cried. My team called me and wanted me to play again for the 2nd round but I turned them down because I was afraid I was going to make a fool of myself.
@@caelum811 it's a horrible feeling isnt it, hopefully you are coping better now, it's hard when it stops you from doing things you love, and no one understands what your feeling
As a black man my social anxiety hits harder and different. The world already hates me for my American dark skin, but the struggles have crushed me into the abyss of loneliness and confusion. I work every single day just to keep myself busy from distractions.
The world doesn't hate you. Some people may be awkward with you because they irrationally fear being perceived as racist for innocuous and well meaning behaviour. I appreciate there are vile racists you may have had extremely negative experiences with. But they are not the world. Rather they are shunned for expressing such views around solely white people.
as a fellow black man i understand. i feel like anxiety my be instilled into black ppl at a young age cuz of racism and shit, but as we get older it evolves. Now at 29, I have crippling social anxiety and depression. 0 friends 0 girlfriends. can barely talk to my own family let alone strangers or ppl i would like to get to know. i just want this shit to be over 🥲🔫
As a black female- I also relate to this. I have social anxiety, but I feel like being black in the US adds so many additional complications that it is difficult to keep yourself afloat and find resources that really help us.
Bruh what…stop being a damn victim how many times have you actually experienced real racism in your life growing??..and btw who cares if some people from another race don’t like us they can go f themselves 😂, stop worrying about what insignificant people think bro 😂
i’m in the same boat. my sister is the one who shares everything with my family and they always joke how she’s an open book and they know nothing about my life. i don’t tell them anything and i wouldn’t dare to
Bro exact same thing here. Like I’m starting to feel like they love my sister way more than me because their tone of voices and the way they talk changes when they talk to me. Like, less cheerful and natural than when they talk with my sister. I think I’m over analyzing
I am that sister I am happy only because I don’t want anyone to know that I am depressed and self conscious My friends even think that I never cry Once they said that the only emotion I have is of happiness But they don’t know what the wall in my room know
That moment when you relate to all the symptoms, but you’re too scared of going to see a professional because you think they’re gonna judge you. Edit: happy news
I was forced to talk to a school counselor once and the whole time I was trembling, my voice was shaky as fuck, I was tryna hide my face by holding a hand over my nose, I was crossing my legs and uncrossing them constantly, I was getting really lightheaded, and I had a tear or two stream down my face. I felt like I could not breathe well because of my runny nose and tried to not sniffle. To add on, my mind was overthinking immensely and I was scared to talk to her so my replies came out in short muffled shaky breaths.
does anyone else get anxious when u hear people laughing and think that they are laughing at u and judging u ? edit: yooo thanks for all the likes lol. it’s nice to have so many people to relate to :)
Guys i dont know if this social anxiety or not but i always scared to order my food to cashier,and when people give my order wrong i doesn't do anything but just drink or eat that food without complain,my hand also will sweaty a lot and my mouth will shaking when i have to perform something😭😭
basically me all day at school: trying not to move alot bc i think i might look weird or something, never asks questions no matter how important it is, i always feel like everyone is judging me/staring at me. i cant even walk without thinking people are staring at me and judging how i walk
@@yesmaam3536 like I don't know if this also consider anxiety but from I was like 3 year old my mom told me I was different from the other kid didn't like to play or associate with people but now it becomes extremely bad I feel upset angry or drown of energy when people coming home some time just don't like part or anything to do with more that 5 people
That’s why you post your face on the internet...? I would go to a professional, it may be something else (not trying to be mean or question anyone’s mental health)
Im very addicted to video games. I usually spend about 10 hours on my computer. Now I have been diagnosed with depression and social anxiety. On top of that, because I spent so much time watching videos, movies in english I started thinking in english. Because of that, I struggle to speak my native language, which just makes my social anxiety even worse.
Ikr and then sometimes I wear clothes that I just put on without thinking then once I’m outside I feel so out of place like people are gonna judge me what I’m saying and doing and I feel embarrassed I also overreact about things and get mad at the slightest thing a person says that I don’t like. I think I have anger issues
And then I say “ well idk mom, it just happens “ then she’s like “ well there has to be a reason. Are you lying “ then I question why I even bother telling anyone bc they are always going to think I want attention.
Ikrrr i never tell my mom how i feel but i had a few panic attacks and often felt lightheaded no matter where i was and i was just tired of it, since everyone says tElL sOmeonE aBouT iT well i did tell my mom and what did i get out of that? 'That's because you spend to much timebon your phone and lay in bed to long you need to go out more often' or since my best friend has depression 'your friend is a bad influence on you' yes mom ofc it's my friends fault that I feel shitty and ofc my phone is bad for me because it's not like it's the only thing that calms me down and distracts me from everything And then she also asks wHy dO yoU nOt tELL mE aNyThiNg do YOu nOt tRUst Me i don't tell her anything becouse everything i say she uses against me smh
“Social anxiety is just an excuse” Are YOU scared of ordering food are YOU scared of just going outside in your front yard are YOU scared to to talk to someone you don’t know and then afterwards cry and get made fun of for it hm?
I always felt like everyone was severely judging me at school, I don't even have the confidence to talk to others. I got my social anxiety at school when I was only 10
Hey there, we have a new video about overcoming anxiety. Would be happy if you watch. Would be glad to hear about your opinions. ruclips.net/video/FBj1eDiXAJ4/видео.html
“Why are you always so nervous?” “Calm down you know all of these people” “We’re family you don’t have to be nervous” “You always seem so worried” “Why are you so shy?” Why do people scare you? They’re just people” These are some of the things I get told on a daily basis and I hate it. I wish I could just be normal and not worry and not be scared and actually be able to make friends
Yes! I always have my camera off in fear like “the lighting looks bad, let’s move.” “They’re probably looking me.” Or I just have thoughts of everyone just judging me. It gets so much easier to speak because my camera is off. It gives much more relaxation knowing that people aren’t judging me because they can’t see me. It gets to the point where I’m just really nervous to turn it on and has it off unless I’m just really forced to. I can’t even really type in the chat, always deleting my previous sentences like: “they might find that weird.” “They gonna think of me as weird.” “Whys does that look like something a small child would say?” “I shouldn’t even be speaking anyway.” “No one is gonna care about that opinion.” It gets to the point where I just don’t even choose to open the chat unless I need to inform my teacher about something really important. I find myself liking online school so much better, being able to hide behind a screen without the struggle to worry about the way I’m sitting in front of people.
As a person with social anxiety, it does make me feel different from others, embarrass myself, interfering with how I perform, and my relationships, and even though I’ve known my classmates for 2 whole years, I still am scared of them. I overthink things A LOT, and also makes me feel sick all the time. Everything here is correct about social anxiety, but the turning point is that I’m the EXACT OPPOSITE OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL. I talk with my only 2 friends a lot.
Yes high school be “presentation” “presentation” “presentation” like just the word makes my palms sweat and my mind race and my heart feel like I wanna pass out
@@mraspberry1582 well, I haven't yet.. but my mind goes blank and I'll feel like exploding bc there's so much emotion, and when I'll finally be by myself that's when I start to cry non-stop
Does anyone feel like when you walk into a school or something, and you see a group of people and instantly think that they are talking about you. *Anxiety 100*
I relate to all of them, my mom thinks I'm just shy and I need to get outside more but she doesn't understand that every time I go to socialize I start crying, Breathing heavily and sometimes I begin coughing if I breath heavy enough. My mom said that I make myself depressed and I just Give myself anxiety but She doesn't understand and now I get anxious talking to her about it. So I'm kind of going towards telling other family members to see if they can help me because I cannot keep living like this if I'm gonna feel like I'm caged in room with a Monster when I'm out of public.
I feel like im being judged every second in my life It feels so good to know that there are people who actually understand...i really appreciate this video
@@Destiny-zo7mr ✨💖🥰❤️✨ I know what's its like to have to be emotionally strong for people because you don't want to drag others into your mess. Just know this stranger is here for you and you won't be a burden to me. I wouldn't lie to someone I wanna help.
Ahhh i remember the times when someone greeted me, i just ignore them because I was really afraid to greet them back. Yeah I hope that doesn't make me mean :)
I'm introverted, shy, socially awkward, and i probably suffer from social anxiety since i relate to every symptom listed in this video. Sometimes i wish i was an extroverted social butterfly, but then i remember how much i love being alone. People scare me.
I relate to all of them and I tremble when I'm in school or around people, I often stay quiet and don't draw attention to myself. I always feel like I'm not good enough and that I not as pretty as the other girls, I'm afraid to ask for help even from my bestie who I tell everything to, I don't like to sosialise because I get nervous and I start to overthink such as "what if they don't like me" or "what if they think I'm ugly" I don't really trust my friends and I like it more when you I'm alone in my room or outside by myself.
Does someone feel like murdering and stuffing kids into a suit and then having to deal with them haunting you for the rest of your life then after that put yourself in a suit that you didn't know that would've killed you and forced you to have to kill others then after that you think that you'll finally be free but end up still being haunted by the kids and then getting a big forehead and then being shipped with people who literally want to do unspeakable things to you and always feel shame and be depressed. That would be nice, huh?
Oh God, this reminds of the time we had lab practice in school...and my worst nightmare happened. My arm accidentally brushed past a test tube stand and broke 4 out of 6 of them. I was in the middle of the lab and EVERYONE turned to look at me (almost 50 kids) I tried to pick up the test tubes from the ground and one of the broken tubes I had already picked up fell out of my hand and broke even further and the entire class went "OOOHH" and my then I started to feel nauseous but thankfully nothing more happened. I was able to hold back my tears till I got home and then I had a huuuuge bawling session. I still get a nauseous feeling in my stomach when I think about it even though it was 2 years ago.
Because of my social anxiety, I’m even scared to show my emotions. My music teacher even asks me why I have stone face! And I’m just being quite because I’m scared to tell people about my mental issues(
this might sound dumb, but can you try to tell yourself that you're being watched cuz you're 'cool', and that you 'deserve' the attention? it's something that worked for me... go buy a new jacket or try a prettier outfit.. change your hairstyle and believe me when i say that upping your self-confidence game works WONDERS. everyone can try to look the best they can ----if you give Donald Trump a face-life, and make him lose weight, he'll look decent (just don't engage in conversation with him, you can't change whatever the heck's up with his brain)... in short, do things that make you feel more confident in yourself and convinces you that the attention you receive is POSITIVE.
@@jakaika1414 i have been there, i know how you feel... Can you walk up to the mirror and see yourself once more? Look at the person in the mirror and find out the most attractive features they have. Maybe you have pretty eyes, or you're very satisfied with how your lips look... Try posing, 'DO' things in front of the mirror like no one's watching--- pout, smile, try different kinds of smiles and see which one suits you the best--------but the most important thing to do here is to ENJOY this experience you're having with YOURSELF in the mirror. Play some lively pop music and dance by yourself... think of it like a self-pamper date (with 'self') Go shopping afterwards... treat yourself... there are lots of videos on youtube that teaches you how to choose clothes based on your body--- ------i have found them to be helpful... more precisely, i've found 'following' them to be useful. I am kinda dumb and can't tell the difference between how a colour-suiting shirt (warm toned) looked better on me that my 'clashing-colour' cool-toned shirt did (*just look at how nerdy this seems*, but I really felt like i 'knew' what I was wearing. The sense of 'KNOWING' gave me SO MUCH CONFIDENCE- There's this youtube channel too--- Alexandra's Girly Talk (do it you're a girl) Also, try something new. If you think losing weight will help you look better, by all means, go for it. Anything that makes you gains confidence. Sometimes, the 'sense of accomplishment' after losing a few pounds really brings a lot of pride and boosts self confidence. Cuz, at the end of the day, you just need to look beautiful and worthy to YOURSELF. I might sound like a weird, drunk life coach, but these are things that worked for me, good luck if you want to follow them!
I fear running into people that I knew and stressed that I won’t be able to keep up the conversation. I wish I had an excuse to run as far away as possible.
Yep I know this feeling like when I was like 11 years old and everytime im crossing in the road with my uncle and if I EVER almost got hit by a bicycle he would say that I'm an idiot or even swear at me. and look at me now feelin anxious every time that I cross a road with many people around me because I feel like they're talking about me because I'm an idiot that can't even cross a road... Also I look so stupid when I cross a road Thanks to my uncle for making me feel anxious every time I cross a road :")
Omg yea like if I do my hair rlly nice for school I feel so confident and then when I get there I feel judged and lose my confidence and just take it out ;-;
My social anxiety comes from years and years of being bullied. I miss the days where I can just go out in public without a care in the world and do whatever I want with no anxiety 😔
PS4 GAMING omg yes ! my friends always tell me i’m boring but it’s literally just cause i’m scared to do anything that will embarrass me or have people judge me :(
the trembling part is the worst especially when you’re talking and your voice tremble too then everyone starts looking at you then you get more anxious and the trembling gets worse. I hate that i can’t control it.
like when you're giving a presentation in class and you know that everybody can tell how you're feeling because of the tone of your voice, your body language and even the sweat on your face, and you hate that you can't calm down. it's one of the worst feelings in the world.
I barely got through speech class back in high school. The first speech I had an anxiety attack and couldn’t bring myself to do it. I was so thankful that my teacher allowed me to do it in front of her and no one else 😅
yeah and then you go home and think they hate you or think you hate them cuz you didnt look them in the eyes.......maaan social anxiety can go jump off a microwave
I have it... at my school 3 periods before lunch we have mid morning, (where we can buy snacks) i never have any money and my whole class sits at on table (9 kids) and since i never have money, my whole class has snacks and im just sitting there thinking, "do they notice me?" "my arms look skinny..." "i look awkward" “how are they viewing me rn?” and more. I just sit there staring at the ceiling every single mid morning questioning my existence, and nobody in my class talks to me.
You know what’s the worst? When you’re talking to someone and they reply dryly. You don’t know if they’re upset or if they just don’t want to talk much. It happens to me all the time and I hate it because I feel like if I ask about it they’ll get upset or more upset if they already were upset
@@iris6700 Yeah! I don't want to look like I DON'T want to answer the question otherwise the teacher will purposely pick me because he/she thinks I'm "not listening". But if I act too confident she/he will also pick me? It's a lose-lose.
@@elisagurez7860 Me too. I had to read out english work and i stood in front of the class shaking like crazy! I also cut most of my speech out so I wouldn't have to stand there for long. The teacher gave me a low grade because I was quiet.
8 signs you have social anxiety 1. You’re always self conscious 2. Your anxiety feels out of hand 3. Interferes with your performance 4. It effects your relationships 5. It doesn’t go away with familiarity 6. You overanalyse everything 7. You avoid social situations 8. You have physical symptoms
I have all 8 signs and I'm 100% sure I have social anxiety. Plus every single online test I take says that I have severe social anxiety and that I should go check it up with a doctor for a proper diagnosis. But the thing is, I get anxiety over telling someone about this, even my own parents.
I have social anxiety and now my mom is making me see a therapist. But I feel like it’s still not gonna help. Also it cost money when I could just watch RUclips videos on social anxiety and how to overcome it. I feel like I am just a weird person who just wants to be alone all the time and that I’m wasting peoples time when I am talking to them because I freeze up and that I am afraid to talk to other people because of my stutter and speech impediment. I just play video games to make me feel happy and feel like I’m worth something because I want to be a youtuber who plays games.😞😔☹️
for me, when i get grounded she just takes away my phone and computer and then is like, "WhY aRe YoU sO uPsEt??? HaVe A bEtTeR mOoD oR yOu WiLL bE GrOuNdEd FoR lOnGeR."
and i have no life in real life, this will sound kinda cringy but the only place i accually enjoy things is on the internet so i despise when this happens with every fiber in my being :D

Hi everyone! We released several videos yesterday including one on the types of anxiety (similar to a crash course). Social anxiety disorder was mentioned in the video and many of you asked us to make one on this topic. Here you go! Previous video: ruclips.net/video/RuPPRLv_YSw/видео.html
Oh my gosh.. I relate to every one of them.. And Ik I do but my mom just thinks it’s because I’m shy. I want help but to scared to ask for it.
welp hello introverts
Thank you guys so mu h for making this. Legit social anxiety came with my manic bipolar and it's ended up leading to me getting a service dog. Gotta love mental health.
@@VinccentVanGogh maybe send her this video an/or tell her per text when she isn't hone, that way you will have some time to yourself to calm down and process how you'll react once she's home (since she'll prob confront you about it)

theres a book that really helped me out with anxiety its called escape the comfort cage, and i recommend it to anyone with social anxiety
holy, this book actually helped me out so much
My social anxiety is so bad omg. I remember one day when i was in middle school, i asked my teacher to not make me present my project, but she said i would fail if not. While i was presenting istg i thought i was gonna faint. My heart was beating hella fast, i couldn't even speak properly, felt like i couldn't breathe, i was shaking and extremely light headed. I just think teachers should be more informed about mental issues like social anxiety before forcing triggers upon students unknowingly.
ugh I know that feeling, I hate that because I’ve always being good in studies but presentations were so hard for me. I looked dumb and unprepared a lot of times, like reading my script without looking up and with my hands shaking. I couldn’t even read it well. Now I hide my irrational nervousness better but it’s still there.
Yeah it’s important to know how to talk in public and all that shit but... It’s really unfair to some people, because they never teach you techniques to calm yourself or something like that, they’re just like “don’t get nervous” 😀.
I relate so much. I one time had a really rough month where my social anxiety was more bad than any other months and I had to presented my presentation and I literally BEGGED my teacher not to do it she said I have to or she will give me an F so I asked if I at least can do it at my seat she said no I have to go in front of the class but I was able to sit on a chair I got red as heck my heart started racing so fast and I was sweating a bit I thought too that I will faint and I the whole time just talked quiet stuttert and looked at my notes I avoided eye contact it was a disaster. I was able to pass it luckily but I was so close of to fail it. It was just extreme for me
I feel that :( it’s extremely ableist when teachers dock points off your grade for not being able to make eye contact, hands shaking, etc. during presentations. Teachers should be more aware about mental illnesses and disabilities and listen to the student.
Same... So I have social anxiety?? I thought I'm just super shy....
Exactly, teachers should not force the socially anxious students to answer in front of so many people. These days during the online classes, it is even more pathetic, they threaten you to switch on your camera and microphones to answer or else they will mark us absent and attendance affects the academy. I always break down when my teacher forcefully makes me answer. UGH!
btw, i'm one of your subscribers, didn't know you are socially anxious too. i love your videos, we're from the same fam (coz kpop, bruh)
I envy people who can just effortlessly socialize with others.
Same ;-;
Same.
Honestly same :/ i was like that 2 weeks ago when someone was able to talk to someone easy when for me I’m just like puts my head down and not want to make eye contact
same sis

I could remember several years ago I was diagnosed with ADHD. Also suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my mom recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms
Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.
Can you help me with the reliable source. I'm 64 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Greece. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them.
YES very sure of Dr.Burkeshroom . I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I hate that psilocybin gets grouped with drugs like cocaine and heroin. Mushrooms are a remedy, not a vice! I went on a microdose treatment for a couple of months and within the first week, every sight of a cigarette got me questioning why I was doing all that to myself. It really works.
childhood. It was relentless. I assumed it would ultimately end me somehow. About twelve years ago I randomly accepted the offer from a friend of a few doses of mushrooms. I did them two consecutive nights alone. First night was pretty mild. The second night? Wow. I saw my depression from every angle, realized much. Next day: depression totally gone. Never came back, never coming back. It's like it's a forest far away I can remember, and could probably find again with enough effort, but it has zero impact on anything in my life or mind. They honestly saved my life and improved it immensely. I never did them again, either. I wish there was a good, organized way to administer them to people who would benefit from them.
Social anxiety makes you anxious even around your closest friends. You think everyone judges you, no matter who they are

Sometimes i think even my parents judge me

When you want to be in the corner but you also don’t want anyone seeing you in the corner cause you don’t want them to think that you’re asocial and you have no friends even tho that’s what’s going on.

Social Anxiety is like having a voice in your brain telling you 24/7 u are being watched an laughed at
A stalker reminding you constantly of everything you're are and have done wrong and predicting what you will do wrong preventing you from trying
omg yeah
Yeah right it feels like hell
Yeah,I never used my outside voice and always looks calm on the outside but there is literally world war 3 in my head
Ughh I kinda feel like I do have social anxiety. I have for a while. But I can’t get professionally diagnosed because I can’t tell anyone. Idk what to do.
My family say to me-
"why do you distance yourself from people?"
"be close to people, make friends."
"Be social "
"Look at them, they are having fun together. Why don't you join them? "
...
I can't.
Same also they'll force you like they just don't understand how it feels, and it feels like its tearing me apart when they keep saying these things
I am sad even on my birthday, it feels like this is worst day for the world, I am going through depression also and social anxiety too. I am tired of living like this 😔
@@i_wantthatvitamindick6266 same😞

Here’s another huge sign: when you’re in a store and you get like, nervous when people walk by you because you think they’ll judge you
Omgg i hate going to the shops cause like am the only one there
and they guy is wating for me am like hurry up u need to go
And i don't think i have anxiety but i guess im really shy when im at the store there will always (sometimes) be an enploye to help me fine the stuff right. Well i freak out i like to fine the stuff on my own but there just doing there job. But it freaks me out i will be very shy and i hate that
I don’t feel like they’re judging me but judging the stuff I buy :(
Notcrazy same
Yea that's me .-.
Telling someone with social anxiety to "just talk and be social" Is like telling a person with asthma to "just breathe"
right
true
This omfggg
no, i think telling a person with SAD to just talk is worse. (i don’t think i have SAD btw so idk BUT . . . as an asthmatic, we have our inhalers and yes, it is near impossible to breath but medications help a ton :3 i think there are very few medications with SAD? idk lol

@@reptile9337 yeah..
"It doesn't go away with familiarity" that one is the hardest for me. It is horrible to feel like you are about to meet someone for the first time everytime you meet with a friend that you have known for years. It never goes away.
I have lived with 2 friends for years and I would still get anxiety whenever I would leave my room. Sometimes to the point where I would need to go to the bathroom and hold it in until they would leave. And these are two people thay I considered my best friends....
It's even worse with family
I cant even walk in front of people with feeling like I'm being judged...
Same i don't think i have social anxiety i think im just a very awkward person and i dont like being judged.

I really wish people who don't experience social anxiety can feel this for just ONE day. Just to better understand us.
Yaaa
Yesss they be like, why are u always alone come join us and then when we finally say something they be like omg u actually talk
Same. My mum and sis are like "oh it's not that hard" "just put yourself out there" well yea if I could I would've tried that ages ago .-.
Unfortunately people who don't have social anxiety will not understand 😫
For real.
1. Fear of being judged
2. Your anxiety feels out of hand
3. It interferes with your performance
4. It affects your relationships
5. It doesn’t go away with familiarity
6. You overanalyse everything
7. You avoid social situations
8. You have physical symptoms
Thanks, I have all this
@@sindhus1025 yeah, same
Me in a nutshell
I have this since elementary.
I only have the first one. I believe I may be just shy
Whenever I talk about how I get nervous, I always start crying.
Does anyone else feel uncomfortable around people, whether they are family or friends. Or just people in general...
Yeah. For me I’m pretty sure it’s just people in general. I’m pretty much terrified of people and like to stick to myself a lot. Can’t even talk to teachers or go over to other people or even ask my parents or guardians a question because Ill always think they’ll hate me or be mad at me afterward.
@@orcinuswhalphin yes
People in general
Haha one time my dad asked me why I feel uncomfortable when people touch me like anywhere
I said idk and he called me un rational haha
It depends. For example I feel comfortable with my family and a small number of friends. With the rest of the people I know I feel pretty uncomfortable
I hate that feeling. Especially when my parents make me go out in public. I hate it. I don’t like being near people. I always have the feeling of crying when I go out to public. My hearts races so fast I can feel it. It’s the worst. My parents really don’t understand, they just think I’m weird, but they don’t know that sometimes I go through that.
Edit 8/30/23: Bro, this was 3 years. I just found this comment 😭 I don’t really have social anxiety anymore. Sure, I do get shy and all sometimes, but I really stopped caring which proves that it does get better. Everything is better when you stop caring. It’ll take a lot time to recover from social anxiety, but it’s possible. Gosh, I was so emo 3 years ago 💀this is making me cringe
I dont even like standing in the corner in a public situation because I’m scared people will notice I’m alone and judge me for not interacting or giving me weird looks
i remember my classmates in elementary, bullying me bcs im lonely haha hope they're doing good :)
Literally ME 😭
That’s totally me😣
Omgg same. I feel like people are going to mock me and say stuff like « haha look she doesn’t have any friends she’s pathetic. »
That's why I stay at the car☺😭
This comment section is the only place where I feel safe and understood.
Same
Yeah, but it kinda lowkey sucks that a comment section is the only place I can let my thoughts out ya know?
Same
I'm still nervous to comment lol
Me too
The harsh reality is that no matter how hard you try to break out of it it always seems to come back after doing good for a short period of time. Sometimes I will be confident for a small period and think that I figured it out, but then wake up the next morning and it’s like a reset button and I have to start all over again😔. I pray abt it to go away in hopes that one day I won’t be held back by anxiety and can live freely.
I have even chosen a career path of coaching so that I can be uncomfortable and break out of this anxiety. I am daily looking for ways to challenge myself which is so hard because I am suffering the whole way through. I wish I could stay in my room at home and be safe from interactions to be at peace, but I know how important it is to my future and my future family that I can be a man that is not held back by a mental illness despite how hard it is to go through. I would not wish social anxiety on anyone and wish that people would be more aware of how challenging it is. I can’t even fathom waking up and not being anxious. I really try to hide it all with fake confidence but it has been taking a toll on my mind for so many years and feel caged up in my mind no matter how hard I try to resist. Anyone who struggles with a similar situation I feel your pain and hope that one day we can feel free to be ourselves. Despite how you may feel with this mental illness, it doesn’t not make you any less of a man or weak. Fighting something like this makes you a stronger individual than the average man. God gives his toughest battles to his toughest soldiers🙌🏻
You have this ❤
ı feel exactly the same way can somone tell how can we break this cyckle or it just gonna be with us for ever

Don't worry- you are not alone. Just remember everything will be okay, people may be judging, but don't let that stop you. It is completely normal to feel awkward, scared, shy, anxious or panic when you felt like you faced too many people. Take a deep breath and believe in yourself, relax, trust me, if you have true friends, they won't judge you at all. Even if there's cases where you are invited to a party, it's your choice and i'm sure they will understand. But why don't overcome your fears? Believe in yourself and people, believe that they won't press you, and it should be easy. Just don't rush, there's time, when you are ready, stand up and strike a conversation. Here's a small tip, be yourself, be natural, don't rehearse conversations and topics, just let it flow to you. Friendly and comfortable conversations are when it's not forced and it comes out of your mind. Hopes this helps, i once have social anxiety myself, i believe in you, you can do it too. ❤️

As a black man my social anxiety hits harder and different. The world already hates me for my American dark skin, but the struggles have crushed me into the abyss of loneliness and confusion. I work every single day just to keep myself busy from distractions.
The world doesn't hate you. Some people may be awkward with you because they irrationally fear being perceived as racist for innocuous and well meaning behaviour. I appreciate there are vile racists you may have had extremely negative experiences with. But they are not the world. Rather they are shunned for expressing such views around solely white people.
as a fellow black man i understand. i feel like anxiety my be instilled into black ppl at a young age cuz of racism and shit, but as we get older it evolves. Now at 29, I have crippling social anxiety and depression. 0 friends 0 girlfriends. can barely talk to my own family let alone strangers or ppl i would like to get to know. i just want this shit to be over 🥲🔫
As a black female- I also relate to this. I have social anxiety, but I feel like being black in the US adds so many additional complications that it is difficult to keep yourself afloat and find resources that really help us.
Bruh what…stop being a damn victim how many times have you actually experienced real racism in your life growing??..and btw who cares if some people from another race don’t like us they can go f themselves 😂, stop worrying about what insignificant people think bro 😂

I was forced to talk to a school counselor once and the whole time I was trembling, my voice was shaky as fuck, I was tryna hide my face by holding a hand over my nose, I was crossing my legs and uncrossing them constantly, I was getting really lightheaded, and I had a tear or two stream down my face. I felt like I could not breathe well because of my runny nose and tried to not sniffle. To add on, my mind was overthinking immensely and I was scared to talk to her so my replies came out in short muffled shaky breaths.
@@misfortunee9949i’m so sorry you had to go through that
😔😔😔
me too i also want to go but im afraid what they'll think and treat me differently 😕 i dont know what to do
does anyone else get anxious when u hear people laughing and think that they are laughing at u and judging u ?
edit: yooo thanks for all the likes lol. it’s nice to have so many people to relate to :)
omg YES
YESSS
Guys i dont know if this social anxiety or not but i always scared to order my food to cashier,and when people give my order wrong i doesn't do anything but just drink or eat that food without complain,my hand also will sweaty a lot and my mouth will shaking when i have to perform something😭😭
YES I FELT THIS
same all the time 😔
basically me all day at school: trying not to move alot bc i think i might look weird or something, never asks questions no matter how important it is, i always feel like everyone is judging me/staring at me. i cant even walk without thinking people are staring at me and judging how i walk
Same here 😓
Same
Omg same
Same, that’s exactly how I feel.
i relate with this
I don’t like to self diagnose but I’m pretty sure I have social anxiety..
Best thing is to ask a professional abt it and see if you can start treatment.
It’s actually self diagnosable but it’s best to seek professional help to understand it better and receive help so it dosent gradually get worse ❤️❤️
@@yesmaam3536 like I don't know if this also consider anxiety but from I was like 3 year old my mom told me I was different from the other kid didn't like to play or associate with people but now it becomes extremely bad I feel upset angry or drown of energy when people coming home some time just don't like part or anything to do with more that 5 people
That’s why you post your face on the internet...? I would go to a professional, it may be something else (not trying to be mean or question anyone’s mental health)
Zena Ally when your small it could be introversion
Im very addicted to video games. I usually spend about 10 hours on my computer. Now I have been diagnosed with depression and social anxiety. On top of that, because I spent so much time watching videos, movies in english I started thinking in english. Because of that, I struggle to speak my native language, which just makes my social anxiety even worse.
literally my case rn 😢😢😢
My social anxiety is so bad, I can't even go into shops....it feels like everyone is watching me and judging me...
I just want to get home fast
I can't even post on social media or comments.
This is the first time I'm commenting on a yt video. Ok good work
bro same👽
I walk around with my head down or when I’m standing I put my head on a wall that’s how I handle mine
Ikr and then sometimes I wear clothes that I just put on without thinking then once I’m outside I feel so out of place like people are gonna judge me what I’m saying and doing and I feel embarrassed I also overreact about things and get mad at the slightest thing a person says that I don’t like. I think I have anger issues
Whenever i tell my mom about my feelings she’ll sometimes say “why?? Thats just ridiculous” :,)
awww lemme give u a virtual hugggggg :'3
Stop telling her about your feelings if she is incapable of understanding.
And then I say “ well idk mom, it just happens “ then she’s like “ well there has to be a reason. Are you lying “ then I question why I even bother telling anyone bc they are always going to think I want attention.
Ikrrr i never tell my mom how i feel but i had a few panic attacks and often felt lightheaded no matter where i was and i was just tired of it, since everyone says tElL sOmeonE aBouT iT well i did tell my mom and what did i get out of that? 'That's because you spend to much timebon your phone and lay in bed to long you need to go out more often' or since my best friend has depression 'your friend is a bad influence on you' yes mom ofc it's my friends fault that I feel shitty and ofc my phone is bad for me because it's not like it's the only thing that calms me down and distracts me from everything
And then she also asks wHy dO yoU nOt tELL mE aNyThiNg do YOu nOt tRUst Me i don't tell her anything becouse everything i say she uses against me smh

Does anyone else also have anxiety about quarantine ending because then you have to go back to school in person?
My quarantine already ended and its not going good but i believe that you will get through it ur not alone and u r gorgeos
@@Valeria-wc5rg thanks, I hope it gets better for you also
Ye
Yes! I always have my camera off in fear like “the lighting looks bad, let’s move.” “They’re probably looking me.” Or I just have thoughts of everyone just judging me. It gets so much easier to speak because my camera is off. It gives much more relaxation knowing that people aren’t judging me because they can’t see me. It gets to the point where I’m just really nervous to turn it on and has it off unless I’m just really forced to. I can’t even really type in the chat, always deleting my previous sentences like: “they might find that weird.” “They gonna think of me as weird.” “Whys does that look like something a small child would say?” “I shouldn’t even be speaking anyway.” “No one is gonna care about that opinion.”
It gets to the point where I just don’t even choose to open the chat unless I need to inform my teacher about something really important.
I find myself liking online school so much better, being able to hide behind a screen without the struggle to worry about the way I’m sitting in front of people.
Quarantine already ended for me for a month or so already and it got even worse.
As a person with social anxiety, it does make me feel different from others, embarrass myself, interfering with how I perform, and my relationships, and even though I’ve known my classmates for 2 whole years, I still am scared of them. I overthink things A LOT, and also makes me feel sick all the time. Everything here is correct about social anxiety, but the turning point is that I’m the EXACT OPPOSITE OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL. I talk with my only 2 friends a lot.
And the fact that teachers are not even aware that they're one of the reasons why students' social anxiety gets triggered 😐
Yes high school be “presentation” “presentation” “presentation” like just the word makes my palms sweat and my mind race and my heart feel like I wanna pass out

Me too. Especially when it’s my parents that say it.
I know!

My mom said to me "YoU'rE jUsT sHy yOu'lL gRoW oUt oF iT" like- no- thats not how it works-
Everybody tells me that...ofc here not

Does anyone feel like when you walk into a school or something, and you see a group of people and instantly think that they are talking about you.
*Anxiety 100*
yesss omg
Yesss I hate that😩
Bro sameee, it's horrible 😫
Yes
Yeah
I relate to all of them, my mom thinks I'm just shy and I need to get outside more but she doesn't understand that every time I go to socialize I start crying, Breathing heavily and sometimes I begin coughing if I breath heavy enough. My mom said that I make myself depressed and I just Give myself anxiety but She doesn't understand and now I get anxious talking to her about it. So I'm kind of going towards telling other family members to see if they can help me because I cannot keep living like this if I'm gonna feel like I'm caged in room with a Monster when I'm out of public.

Ahhh i remember the times when someone greeted me, i just ignore them because I was really afraid to greet them back. Yeah I hope that doesn't make me mean :)

I relate to all of them and I tremble when I'm in school or around people, I often stay quiet and don't draw attention to myself. I always feel like I'm not good enough and that I not as pretty as the other girls, I'm afraid to ask for help even from my bestie who I tell everything to, I don't like to sosialise because I get nervous and I start to overthink such as "what if they don't like me" or "what if they think I'm ugly" I don't really trust my friends and I like it more when you I'm alone in my room or outside by myself.
Same my sharking is worse it's permeant shaking I always feel uneasy even around family and friends
Me: has social anxiety
My mom: it's because of that damn phone
Ikr and I feel quite confident on a phone by myself but to talk to someone face to face I just cant
Yes even thoug it kinda helps me interact
Me:I have social anxiety
My mom:it’s just a phase
Scaryyy
my mom says that but actually my phone distracts me and calms me down
does someone feel like crying when you read something out loud in the class, etc
Yeah
My heart also beats fast and I feel nauseous
But because my class is bad they don't care for English they don't listen so I feel a little better that they aren't paying attention to me
Does someone feel like murdering and stuffing kids into a suit and then having to deal with them haunting you for the rest of your life then after that put yourself in a suit that you didn't know that would've killed you and forced you to have to kill others then after that you think that you'll finally be free but end up still being haunted by the kids and then getting a big forehead and then being shipped with people who literally want to do unspeakable things to you and always feel shame and be depressed. That would be nice, huh?
yep :,)
It sucks when you have social anxiety AND social awkwardness at the same time
Yes
That's me:/
Oh God, this reminds of the time we had lab practice in school...and my worst nightmare happened. My arm accidentally brushed past a test tube stand and broke 4 out of 6 of them. I was in the middle of the lab and EVERYONE turned to look at me (almost 50 kids) I tried to pick up the test tubes from the ground and one of the broken tubes I had already picked up fell out of my hand and broke even further and the entire class went "OOOHH" and my then I started to feel nauseous but thankfully nothing more happened. I was able to hold back my tears till I got home and then I had a huuuuge bawling session. I still get a nauseous feeling in my stomach when I think about it even though it was 2 years ago.

My social anxiety: They're judging you. They hate your outfit. They dislike you, etc etc

this might sound dumb, but can you try to tell yourself that you're being watched cuz you're 'cool', and that you 'deserve' the attention? it's something that worked for me... go buy a new jacket or try a prettier outfit.. change your hairstyle and believe me when i say that upping your self-confidence game works WONDERS.
everyone can try to look the best they can ----if you give Donald Trump a face-life, and make him lose weight, he'll look decent (just don't engage in conversation with him, you can't change whatever the heck's up with his brain)... in short, do things that make you feel more confident in yourself and convinces you that the attention you receive is POSITIVE.
That is so me 😓
@@btstwitterupdates3790 How? even when I looked in the mirror, I always felt insecure
@@jakaika1414 i have been there, i know how you feel... Can you walk up to the mirror and see yourself once more? Look at the person in the mirror and find out the most attractive features they have. Maybe you have pretty eyes, or you're very satisfied with how your lips look...
Try posing, 'DO' things in front of the mirror like no one's watching--- pout, smile, try different kinds of smiles and see which one suits you the best--------but the most important thing to do here is to ENJOY this experience you're having with YOURSELF in the mirror. Play some lively pop music and dance by yourself... think of it like a self-pamper date (with 'self')
Go shopping afterwards... treat yourself... there are lots of videos on youtube that teaches you how to choose clothes based on your body---
------i have found them to be helpful... more precisely, i've found 'following' them to be useful. I am kinda dumb and can't tell the difference between how a colour-suiting shirt (warm toned) looked better on me that my 'clashing-colour' cool-toned shirt did (*just look at how nerdy this seems*, but I really felt like i 'knew' what I was wearing. The sense of 'KNOWING' gave me SO MUCH CONFIDENCE-
There's this youtube channel too--- Alexandra's Girly Talk (do it you're a girl)
Also, try something new. If you think losing weight will help you look better, by all means, go for it. Anything that makes you gains confidence.
Sometimes, the 'sense of accomplishment' after losing a few pounds really brings a lot of pride and boosts self confidence. Cuz, at the end of the day, you just need to look beautiful and worthy to YOURSELF.
I might sound like a weird, drunk life coach, but these are things that worked for me, good luck if you want to follow them!

"my arms look skinny..." "i look awkward" “how are they viewing me rn?” and more. I just sit there staring at the ceiling every single mid morning questioning my existence, and nobody in my class talks to me.
You know what’s the worst? When you’re talking to someone and they reply dryly. You don’t know if they’re upset or if they just don’t want to talk much. It happens to me all the time and I hate it because I feel like if I ask about it they’ll get upset or more upset if they already were upset

8 signs you have social anxiety
1. You’re always self conscious
2. Your anxiety feels out of hand
3. Interferes with your performance
4. It effects your relationships
5. It doesn’t go away with familiarity
6. You overanalyse everything
7. You avoid social situations
8. You have physical symptoms
Entire list describes me..I hate it so much..its a constant battle and I'm tired..
