Forget the meds. Forget the religionist dope too. Forget Paxil. Been there done that, it's bad dope. Get lots of exercise, eat a decent diet, go outside and visit nature on a regular basis. Avoid all mood altering substances including alcohol and caffeine. Most importantly, do something every day that will make you a better person, and the planet a better place to live. When you feel you have value to offer, and like yourself, other people will more likely accept you. Try to meet at least one new person every day, and make them smile. People love to laugh, and people love a happy person, so find your happy healthy place, and be there. If you are doing things that are making you miserable, then just stop. It's not that hard really. When the going gets rough, find that one good true thing you can hold onto, and hold on, the feeling will pass. A mantra, a prayer, a little song, an affirmation. Just DO IT! Who told you this? Some Psych that wants to put you on meds, so he can milk your health insurance forever? Think about it! Feeling shy, or insecure is not a crime, but psychiatric abuse should be.

Yo man I've had social anxiety disorder as well. And I have overcome it.
READ THIS!
You need more practice talking to people, join a club or hang out with your friends more often. Meds won't do shitt. You need to get motivated to get some practice in social situations. Start out small like going to the mall with your friends and buying shitt and stuff like that.
But again meds don't do shitt! You need to practice or you won't improve.

I don't know if I'd call it social anxiety disorder, but I used to be shy. The way I handled it would be to go out with friends, bring a lot of friends and talk to them and it will make being in a crowd a little easier, then later you will go out alone and not be bothered by the crowd.

A new term for shyness, Try to find out what you like to do and very slowly do it. Like take a couple of classes at your local college.Go to your local library and look up natural cures. You just need to learn how to relax. and feel comfortable with yourself.Hope this helps.

The best short term Med I have used is paxil and zoloft... For long term the best for me is Cymbalta.... Be Careful getting on or off any of these meds!!!! complications can occur and side effects are difficult.

Is "social anxiety disorder" a fancy name for just being shy?? Why do you want to take pills to get high to function in life? If you have physical sensations (heart racing, weakness, dizzy) you have a physical problem. If you're just scared of meeting people, you simply lack some social skills.
Don't live your live high on drugs if you're either physically imbalanced or just shy. Fix it- don't drug it.

At your age you must consider meds as the last resort! You don't want to be hooked on pills for the rest of your life! But then again it may be the only way! I'm no doctor! your best bet is to ask your parents to get you to a doctor and have him sort things out for you! I'm not saying meds are a bad thing. But even the doctors themselves do not like to give you meds unless its the last resort.

For men it is different. I take Paxil CR. I first will advise you to find you a scripture that you can hide in your self. When the feeling comes on you begin to repeat the Word. I know it will comfort you.
