Im 19 and I was recently diagnosed with social anxiety a couple years back. What I want to know is, can social anxiety make you afraid of confrontations with ANYBODY? and make you doubt yourself? I get soooo choked up and teary eyed whenever somebody gets mad at me and confronts me. I HATE that. and its like i cant get mad for some reason. I try to defend myself but its like im so paralyzed i dont say or do what i want to say. my chest tightens up and i start to shake. I feel like such a coward afterwards and beat myself up. and i avoid people and situations that will lead to conflict. but i try to force myself to do so. it shouldnt be like that. i shouldnt have to worry about what people think about me, and have coinfedence in myself. ive only been in one fight and i was so paralyzed i only defended myself, i dont even remember if i threw a punch. im just so afraid of embarrassing myself in front of everybody. and its like it makes no sense to me. even if i know i can take the person.

Now I know that I am going to have a lot of people calling me names and telling me that I am F*in retarded but I have this fear that is kind of going away now but I am afraid of falling into the sky, when I lay on the ground and look up at the sky I can look at it if it has big clouds but if it is clear I get this weird feeling that I am going to fall INTO the sky I know it is a dumb thing to think because if it was possible then MANY people would have already done it! I know there is such thing as gravity but does anyone have this phobia and why do I feel this way?

Sometimes I dream that I have to take care of a baby (not always mine)and I forget ot change him /her or clean or give the bib and I realize that after days of having the baby with me. The other dream is that I am on a boat (a small one) in a lake or sea and it starts to make water but I am not very scared. Usually I wake up when I have the water a little bit over my knees but sometimes the boat turns up and I start to swim and at that moment I wake up.

For me, it's my body and my intellect.

I find it easy to protect them rather than share them with the world.

i'm not perfect, but me and my g/f work hard for the few things we have and it's all ours. our car is our lifeline, we need it for work and the few times in the year we can get away to relax. anyway last year because some scumbag could'nt manage to steal the car (heavy duty steering wheel lock) he decided to smash the windscreen instead. could somebody please explain the mindset of such a person because even the thought of knocking over a neighbours milk bottle is an alien concept to me.

I can't get people to stop laughing about me in my art major. I am a college junior at a big university and last semester I signed up to be a nude model, and well, it was going good at first. But one day i was late to class, and the professor had a female replace me. As I was about to leave, the professor suggests I stay and have the students draw two figures.

Well, standing up there with her I became aroused and had to remain there for an hour with her. Whenever i modeled after that a few select girls from the same class would make gestures at me behind the teachers back to get me excited again. I stopped modeling but now everyone calls me the b**** boy, even people I dont know. It really bothers me.

why do people think its so funny, and continue to bust me about it? Shouldn't they take the class more seriously and see the body as art?
