I'm not sure wether I have Social Anxiety Disorder. I've looked into it and done some online tests, but I can't work up the courage to tell any friends or family.
I'm painfullyyyyy shy at school, and people make comments on it alllllllll the time, that people just assume I can't talk or something.
I have friends, but not as many as I used to have, as I'm too shy to work up the courage to meet anyone new. Whenever my friends invite me to festivals or peoples houses, I always decline because I know I'll be in a social enviroment, and I'm scared of embarressing myself. I don't even like buying things in shops incase I have to talk to the people at the tills.
I can answer the door, but I don't like talking on the phone, because I'm scared of arkward silences.
I hatehatehate public speaking like class presentations, and I hate being centre of attention.
I hate starting conversations, and my voice is always shaky when I talk to somebody I don't know that well.
The thing is, I'm absoloutley fine when I'm at home, but completely different in school. On all my school reports, teachers have even made comments on my shyness.
I don't want to tell my parents how I'm feeling because I'm scared they'll think I'm being dramatic, and they won't believe me.
Please don't call me an emo or whatever, because if you haven't experienced this, then you really have no idea how I'm feeling.
Please let me know I'm not the only one!

p.s I 'm sorry if this was abit long!
