It Was Never Social Anxiety And Why Awareness Is Empowering.

[@aleksandra7420]

I don't have a diagnosis except for an informal one from my therapist, saying that I have the Social Isolation/Alienation schema. He says he doesn't want to put a label on me, but I do want the label just to validate my experience and simplify my understanding of it. Overall, I'm just tired of being exhausted all the time and feeling behind in life D: Nice video. I love the colors and the idea. I'll go watch the one you recommended too

appreciate you, I relate to wanting to have a diagnosis, cause I feel like it could make your life a lot easier (while I keep reminding myself everyday that self diagnosis is valid). wish you the best on your journey.

I diagnosed with AVPD (Avoidant personality disorder) and social anxiety. The problem is although I ALWAYS think "it's okay I can do it, It's okay to make mistakes, it's okay to be silly people won't notice anyway, anxiety don't define me," but my body has their own mind I can't control the trembling heart explosion nausea like I DON'T KNOW why they're there.... and those sensation makes me avoiding A LOT of things in my life it's like I'm avoiding the life itself, sometimes it will turns to become depression. but it's okay I'm working on it

I feel you, for me I also get nauseous and stumach pains and at some point my brain starts telling me we’d rather no longer live than do what is giving me anxiety. Insane how the body can respond to it being stressed

[@Say_yo_jay]

feel you on that, personally these affirmations have never quite worked for me to stop the anxiety while being in that situation (they help to not feel ashamed later for the way I acted though), I am just starting to go out there and deal with social interactions in a different way, in a couple of weeks I wanna do another video on ways that work for me to make it easier, now that I know I don't have to put myself through panic attacks, if I know my limits I can take measures to prevent that. much love
