taking it one day at a time

Jul 17, 2005 01:21

I have come to the realization that as "open and outgoing" I am with my close friends, that as soon as I get in a situation I'm uncomfortable in, I get incredibly shy, sensitive, and anxious. I have a fear of strange people, new people, people I am not sure about. Or as Ash calls it "social anxiety" and until I get over this I am not sure what I am going to do, trying to get a job, getting my driver's lisense, and just living in society. I mean I get so anxious I make myself sick to my stomach and my hands shake. It's hard, and I don't know how to stop it.

I'm not sure what to do.

And if that wasn't enough I have a mood problem too, Not something I can explain too well cause I don't know all that much myself, but I have rapid mood changes, and usually its for no reason I get mad, or upset. I have major highs and then my lows last for weeks at a time. Its not good to be able to cry yourself to sleep every night. And if that's not enough I can't sleep at night either. i think its finally all catching up to me, where I don't even want to go out, its easier to stay in my house and not talk to anyone. Just stay away from anything that could aggravate me.

I need help.
