So I have social anxiety disorder and not getting better no matter what I do. Most recently I am dating someone who is less awkward than me lol, and he's been taken me out to places. Now, the more I go, you would think, next time it should be better. But NO, I still suffer from the same odd symptoms being around others. Not sure what else out there. I am tired of Xanax that works for a couple of hours and then things are worse after a few hours. Just being out freaks me out, I like being alone, I get a whole lot of things done.
