I dont know what's been going on with me lately. But for some reason, my feelings, or something, have taken a wierd turn. Im all of a sudden really anxious for no reason. And when Im with people Im not that comfortable with, I get very uncomfortable and shaky, and sometimes get all red in the face. I know it probably sounds stupid and minor. But I dont know why Im like this out of nowhere. I dont recall anything happening recently...but sometimes I just feel like people can see right through me. I hate going to work b/c I have to deal with people, and its SO hard right now. ( I havent been like this for a long time ) Its like Ive lost the sense to be myself, and I just lose all confidence. Causing these wierd anxiety things. I dont know. Why am I like this, and how can I deal!!?

I actually know how you feel. When I was in basic training it hit me all of a sudden, the anxiety was awful. Once I got overseas I got prescribed buspar which works great and I was way better. Now I work in the mental health field and there are millions of people who have the same problem. You are not alone. Go see your doctor and if he can't help you ask for a referral to a psychiatrist or mental health nurse practitioner. Make sure you go to someone who can prescribe meds just in case you have to take them.

The best way to find out why you have suddenly become anxious is to talk to someone. If possible, start with the person whom you consider to be your best friend and ask if he/she has noticed a change in you; perhaps that person can give you some insight as to when the change started. If you are uncomfortable with that, then find a counselor to talk to -- no matter where you live there should be some kind of low-cost counseling center available. Do NOT attempt to deal with such feelings alone.

I would seek treatment as soon as possible. It sounds to me like you have a social anxiety disorder, and that can be truly horrible.
The trick is to get help as soon as possible in order to minimize the low self-esteem, depression, and anger that generally come with.
This ailment is usually treated with medication, and can be greatly controlled with the right medication.

Sounds like fear. No, you're not crazy. No, you don't need professional help. What you need is to re-evaluate your feelings, fears, and desires - And find out truely what you can do to end the fear and insecurity. Hope I helped :)
