Hi Diane,
Thank you very much for yor comments.The answer to your question is no,I'm not in any therapy or treatment for my social phobia,What I try to do is have a good life,and when I feel really anxiouys or I have to face a social situation that I know will make me feel bad,I just take an anti-anxiety pill,and that's all.I really only use them for the moments when I feel more vulnerable,the rest of the time I try to manage it myself the best I can.The curious thing about me is that nobody knows about my problem,not even my boyfriend,and I'm sure if I would tell my friends,my boyfriend,or anybody who knows me,they would laugh,in the sense that they wouldn't believe it, I am very sociable,nice
and kind to everybody,and everybody would think it is impossible for me to have such a disorder,but they don't know what is inside me,and the bad moments I have with this problem..I always take my pills with me,in order to feel more secure,but most of the time I don't take them.Maybe I take 3 or 4 a month,only in special situations or specials moments when I feel down.
I've tried to find help in professionals,psycologist,etc...but I found all of them absolutely incompetent,I'm not rich,so I can't really risk large quantities of money on something which doesn't offer me any guarantees,so I try to live the best I can,enjoy life as much as possible,and have a little help only occassionaly with those pills.Sorry for my mistakes,I'm Spanish.Thank you very much...And I would be very grateful to receive any advice or site where I could find useful information for my case.THANKS A LOT.
