I've heard about it before, and have looked it up and i pretty much relate to it, but idk if someone can classify themselves as it. Do you need a doctor to diagnose you with it or can you just know by reading about it by relating to it?
I think I have it because;
When im around a group of people, no matter who they are, even if they are friends, i can't talk, i never know what to say, or what people would think of me if i said something.
i constantly think people are watchin me and judging me. Even if i just want to go across the street to get a soda from the store, or if i just take out the trash i look to see if there are people out there, and if they are, i wait a while debating if i should go yet. It;s hard for me to talk to people, even tho i want to so bad, something just makes me feel weird about it. I never feel comfortable around anyone. maybe just like 3 or 4 people. and thats it. im afraid of meeting new people. I tend to try to put off plans because i worry what people will think of me or because i know i wont talk if i meet someone new. i dont like to do anything in front of people, its like im not myself, but i cant help it, i want to be so bad, but i just cant make myself get over my fear.
would you say this is social anxiety? or something else. i dont want to go to a doctor to find out. and i dont want to ask my dad to take me because he might not think there is a such thing or might think im weird.
