I'm good with social interaction up to a certain threshold then it's time to recharge.
Once I'm at the point where I'm around a crowd of people wandering aimlessly bumping into me, cutting me off, yacking and coughing every where etc. I get burnt out spiritually and need to just crack open a few cold ones and chill in a corner

Lol @ digusting. There's nothing remotely reclusive about me I'm always out and about doing shyt.
It's more a case of when i have to go into the town centre and if you knew the place I'd imagine you'd do the upmost to get in and out as quickly as humanly possible :dead:

Depression ain't shyt, if you've ever had Social Anxiety.

Guarantee yall would rather have Depression than Social Anxiety.

Imagine your body, your nervous system in chronic Flight or Fight in every social situation: work, family, school, travelling ...due to some fukking trauma in childhood that your body/mind hasn't let go of. Being on a packed train was literally HELL for me. A group meeting :damn: a presentation :damn: a family gathering :damn: :damn: fukk every major holiday, fukk summer, fukk the mall, fukk traffic, fukk public transport, fukk church etc. Thank God for disabled toilets. Depression doesn't compare :yeshrug:

Overcame both though :wow: Social Anxiety is no joke, don't be judging quiet people, don't assume they are rude. Their mind is on high alert and they can't multitask, they either panicking or disassociating. Thank the most high for Porn.
Bruh the porn probably made it worse.

But yes social anxiety is no joke and I have struggled with it in the past. It can get better but you have to put yourself in those uncomfortable situations so much that they start to become less of a big deal. Add therapy, public speaking classes, exercise and acting classes to the mix and you can make significant steps in beating it.

having social anxiety never made me play russian roulette, or force my girlfriend to play with me, or have dissociative episodes where i talk about this stuff on message boards out of the clear fukkin blue, etc

How’d you get past your anxiety? Putting up a front sounds too tiresome.
I convince myself that certain thoughts are all in my head & it's not reality. The self-convincing part may start off hard but oonce you do, it makes it a lot easier.
