Social anxiety
الرد من العميل
Hello.. i’m kenzy, a teenager. i’m a very shy introverted person disclaimer, i wasn’t born like this not as a kid i was more friendly so i thought i was being shy like any normal person but i later came to realization that nope that doesn’t really seen like me only being shy i mean it involved sweating and stuttering not being able to talk .. breathing starts seeming harder that the usual looking around like a freak and thinking omg i humiliated myself and keeping overthinking the situations for months if not years and of course blushing and feeling uncomfortable .. rarely shaking any part of my body . i ignored it because i thought it was normal, i’d try to skip any social event or any place that has crowds of people when i meet someone who i’m not really familiar with i stay silent and that’s one of the reasons why people think ‘oh she’s rude or take a bad impression of me’ even my friends and i don’t really blamethem don’t understand why am i like this because around them i’m more comfortable at least than the usual and it’s not only with strangers or people i barely know sometimes with family members and friends but i can’t help it i try to overcome and like motivate myself be like ‘ i’ll go out i’ll be normalbut i’ve failed all of the times’ i thought about seeing a psychiatrist but the whole quarantine thing had just started and i couldn’t wait any longer. i decided after ignoring this for a while i’ve decided that i needed to know more about this so i’ve searched and i’ve read about anxiety, social anxiety and being shy and i’ve matched best with social anxiety but i can’t only rely on the internet i’ve asked people that had past with social anxiety and they’ve said that no of course not its not just being shy but you’re suffering from an anxiety attack which made me more curious to know how, when and why and do i actually suffer from this disorder how to treat it i have so many questions. plus this was coming into my way destroying a lot of stuff i would’ve loved to invest in a lot of hobbies and make more friends .. Be normal. Speak up for myself stop myself from getting harassed and humiliated and embarrassed. The biggest problem is people never understand the society we live in are so immature to understand and address the importance of mental health and illness of any age and how it affects and destroys lives especially when teenagers for instance go to a toxic place which is school of course a place that i at least despise. teachers ask questions in class for an open discussion of whatever she’s explaining and i of course panic and the side effects that i listed earlier like blushing sweating take over and i don’t answer even though i know the answer but i cannot. i freeze and my body physically is not allowing me to move, my mind shuts down sometimes you feel like blacking out because of a lot of stuff and the embarrassment like omg people think i don’t know the answer but no that’s not it and stuff like this stays with you till you die . i don’t get to choose and mental illness or physical. But how do you want teachers and parents and friends to understand it’s impossible. if you don’t mind we discuss this in more details , i think it’ll help . i actually went to another like skin care doctor and tried treating my sweaty hands with aluminum chloride but unfortunately it failed. anyways thanks for your time i’ll be waiting for your answer as soon as possible please. make it quick:)

First thank you so much for giving me your time and I appreciate it. So as a person living with this disorder for years now thinking it was something else but here i am now. so of course I noticed how this whole social anxiety thing was coming into my way and my life I obviously didn’t like it. I tried going to social events with people I am a little bit familiar with so it makes it easier but no I didn’t I try speaking up for myself like maybe while ordering food but it’s hard I still stutter with very simple things i mean My friends see me acting around people I’m not really familiar with and they think why she being so weird that’s not her i dont blame them for not understanding Because I myself do not understand what is this why do I have it one and how I don’t fear putting myself into embarrassing situations that’s not it only Atlees

getting asked a question at school that I know with my classmates that I know well and I know the answer of the questions still stuttering and having this anxiety attack that’s not normal that’s not only being shy or putting myself into embarrassing situation I mean i know the answer are used to a while ago answer normal questions I mean I would love if a teacher picked me to answer a question now I literally hide like I feel sometimes. When I keep counting the questions to see if it would land on me and when it’s crazy and I tried I tried calming myself down I tried being like that’s nothing and it will be fine no one is looking at you people don’t think of something negative about you I‘ve failed every time I tried like I really tried because it’s coming in my way affecting my life affecting me it’s like bad and it gets worse every day of course I don’t know when or how but I try but sometimes I like I cant i’ll skip the hangout or any thing even if it is with only my close friends sometimes i can’t sometimes it’s too much and i feel confused and people’s confusion and how surprised they look makes me sadder and more confused it’s devastating like how am i going to live my life doing whatever i like in the future while always hiding behind the curtains or the door asking people for help while

i can’t do it myself sometimes it’s so frustrating and i live in a community where mental health is not addressed enough or even understood teachers and people in general family and friends they do not understand how such a thing can turn your life upside down with other experiences you’ve went through even if at a very young age it leaves scars .. mental health was never related to age you can be depressed at the age of 10 and for example it was because of bullying but then it gets worse .. and with me and my condition of course it gets worse

i mean i try escaping and avoiding something inevitable and ignoring it too.. because it’s not in my hands no one chooses and mental illness or physical or whatever. and i tried everything.. i tried apps even for anxiety.. like your breathing and emptying your mind i tried some courage from people around me not so much but yeah and myself of course but non of it worked or will work and i’m not so confident to be able to do this so effortlessly and if this worked i wouldn’t be here texting asking for help

honestly it’s very hard especially when my confidence is low and its not really about bringing myself down more like i’ve tried and failing everytime only frustrates me i mean i wish i could overcome it but when you experience such a thing it’s much more harder to think positively or to explain the state of my mind at the moment
