fear
I got a letter from my school stating that since I show effort in class and have pretty good grades they are inviting me and my parents to breakfast and then will have an awards ceremony. I am soo scared to eat in front of people. I'm fine with my parents but none of my friends are going either. All people I don't know or don't like. I'm picky about food too and I know I'm not going to like it so how can I eat it without looking grossed out?
I started taking concerta 8 months ago and it has made ia great change in the fear I USED to have speaking in front of people . I till stutter but not near as often when speaking in front of adults .
I'm 30 and afraid of the dark. Welcome to the club.
Fears never leave us, sadly. It sounds like bad news, but we can learn to manage them. I've been diagnosed with sever anxiety, GAD, panic, and depression. I'm not on meds. I manage it. I don't recommend this as the path for you/everyone, I'm just putting it out there to say: I know where you're at.
The thing is, I've friends who're famous musicians, and terrified of performing.
I work with now, and have worked with in the past, a lot of people that are in the lower income level. They are offered chance to take classes that will increase their value at their present job and anywhere else they would choose to go. Instead they choose to bowl, play volleyball, hang with their buddies or what have you.
Then he put on a condom, before he could get the head of his penis good inside of me i asked him to stop. The next day i asked my did he have anything and he got very offended. He stoppd speaking tp me.. 3 weeks later i got tested for STD and everything came back clear, On April 15,2010 I went to my doctors and got HIV tested, becasue o was always nasuse,tired, and forgetfull. Nothing came back, now i have lower abdominal pains and jus now ive been having what i think are night seats.
First, a doctor said that the heart beat and the feelings i had had were because of stress and tiredness, because i used to stay up at night in front of the computer, I used to stay up even till morning, especially in the summer time. Now, i don't usually go to bed later then 12:30, i try to eat better, exercise daily and all that. I do spend a fair amout of time in front of the computer though.
Not sure if this will help, but I HAD the same problem..extreme fear of speaking in front of groups. Also, anxiety. I take 12.5 mg of Paxil for anxiety and that has helped. I talk in front of groups alot. If it is really bad, I take a small dose of Xanax, and that calms me. I never took ativan. Good luck. Oh, Xanax does not effect my speaking, it just calms me abit. I don't slur or look like an idiot.
you to post...it is that very strict rules have been set up in the HIV forum b/c of the large # of people suffering from HIV Anxiety/phobias who continue to post incessantly despite either a no risk situation, or conclusive NEG results. This jams up the forum and is NOT fair to new people who want their risks assessed. It is a VERY VERY busy forum! Therefore, medhelp set forth very specific rules that we must abide by. It ISN'T a counselling service...
I’ll start from the beginning. I’m a 14 year old girl, 5’7ft/171 cm, 135 pounds. Around September of 2016, I started becoming extremely fatigued and had occasional headaches (though not often and not bad enough so I never really thought much about it). The fatigue was the worst part. It would cause me to become extremely tired throughout the day and I would be ready to fall asleep at 7pm every night. Waves of fatigue would come and go.
I am extremely introverted and almost always keep to myself unless I absolutely have to go out in public. When I was younger I was a little more "outgoing" but over the years I have developed severe Social Anxiety to the point where I have practically lived like a hermit for the last 15 years (not always fun!).
I am writing today to find out if people and their attitudes have changed over the last 20 years or if it's "just me".

m betting it has to do with fear of failing in something, or of not meeting expectations, or of something you have not completed, something you are afraid to try. Or a mix of stuff like that. It may be extremely difficult to talk about this with a parent or with anyone at all. But you can talk about it HERE, if you want to. You are very fortunate to have this fear of dying right now, because the causes are fairly recent.
The DH of a dear friend passed away this week. In addition to mourning, she's been searching in vain for his birth certificate & their marriage license. She had to order docs through the state capital, for an unreasonable amount of money.
I know it's unreasonable, because it's been privatized, and I luckily got my documents before that process was complete.
(I had to get official docs to apply for Italian citizenship; they were mostly $5).
Stop fearing breathing. I know it's easier said than done. You don't just get over a fear (I feel though personally this is more than just fear) it's fear that has took over our every aspect of our lives. You can breathe again. Don't hold in your breath. Worst thing you could think to do like it would be helpful at all. No. I'm not afraid someone coughing anymore. Be assertive.
