i fear people

Hey, wow you seem to be the first person i have come across who has a silmiar illness as i do! I guess since i was little i have suffered from social phobia, always withdrawn and quiet. When i was 19 i had a severe breakdown and developed panic attacks and depression which made me both agoraphobic and severely socially phobic. Although i know exactly why i fear people, i have had more than my fair share of abuse both from mum, the people who brought me up and boyfriends.

im 22 yr old female and for as long as i can remember i find it extremely difficult to talk to people face to face or on the phone, i can talk to people if it only requires typing. when i get in to one of these situations i feel very anxious and sometimes feel like crying running and vomiting i have to force myself to make conversation with my partner and family. it is not easy for me to talk to a doctor about this either as they are people i normally get my partner to talk for me.

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.

over the last few weeks i have been travelling, i seem to have come out with a bad cold.. sore eyes and ears i have a slight fear that i have caught HIV... my fears are as follows: i had a little cut on my face and it bleed for a bit after shaving i met this guy who i know has hiv and hugged and kissed him, after i had done that i realised he was to bleeding dried blood or fresh not sure? but i met him after 10 mins? and secondly someone has spt in my face.....

well I told a few people in rhe first fee months because I was sooo excited! but I was afraid of the same thing to the point were I would go to the bathroom to check to make sure when I wiped there was nothing there (tmi sorry) but i had to stop myself obsessing because I was stressing which ultimately can cause miscarriage! just try not to worry about it too much and focus on the health and well being of your new little baby!! :-) . . . thats what I did! and im now 34 weeks!

to me all the time i dont know if its fear or some thing that can cause death or just obssetion ..i heard that i people can have sudden death from being to scared welli am soo scared from fear for no apparent reason i think im sick but my parents tell me that i am not .

I know many of us have posted about this fear and anxiety. I was very anxious prior to treatment. It was fear of the unknown. I felt a lot better after I started treatment> All of that anxiety disappeared. You will do just fine. If you come across some bumps in the road, just post and we will respond. This group is very supportive. Plus we have had moost of the side effects so we do know some remedies. Best of luck.

It depends on what frame off mind i am in,when i get an attack it really depends on how my mind will react,for instance i can sometimes ignore the symptoms and be over it in a few hours,whilst other times i just convince myself that the symptoms are worse than wot they are and then they can last for days or maybe weeks.

something that i never felt before for neither of my kids yes i do pray but for some reason when i get pregnant with people i no my child dies.what are the odds of me having a still born.and watch everyone else have their babies i no this is a long rant i feel safe talking to moms here then to people i no and think am crazii or over thinking this...

I never let any I dont know get close to me. Around people I dont know I am shy and I am worried about what they think of me. But around my friends I am lively and very friendly. WIll someone please help me get over this fear of letting people in and meeting new people.

I am at the exact same condition as you are in and thought i could help you out. I also fear extremely too much when to meet people especially new ones. I am socially awkward. But I want to change this and knowing that some other people are also suffering from this gives a bit relief because you're not the only one. Regarding your fiance please please talk to him. you can do that and you have to do that as he is gonna be you're other half for life so clear the things out .

I have also this mild fear of people when i am in a crowed place. I tend to be very attentive when i am alone and i keep looking around me and staring in people's faces and their hands, . If i see a knife my heart skips a beat and then i calm myself down through private talk. I'm i nuts?? A few days a go i was robbed and ever since i am terrified to leave the house.

Hey everyone. I am having my first child (little girl !) and I can't seem to escape people putting fears in my head. Like yesterday I had someone tell me cause the past couple of days my babe wasn't too active but now she is they decided to tell me my baby might be dying. That really broke my heart. My family is known for having really healthy babies so I think I will too but everyone still likes to tell me stuff that puts fear in my mind. Anyone have advice to help me clear my head?

I wonder if this has something to do with things that we fear most. I also have woke up to people standing over me and feel as if I am wide awake. Last night I saw a green, almost glowing figure of a man standing over my husband which startled me, then I realized there was nothing there. I am very interested to know what can cause these things.

I have fear from having panic attack. that's why i don't drive my car and my car. what should i do ? I'm 36 years old mother of 2 children. Kuwait 21.6.

But what happens when next week I am feeling a whole lot better, and this little voice in my head tells me to go back and get more pills? When I am feeling bad I feel like I never want to take any more ever again, but when I start feeling good that is when I get in trouble. I am so scared to take more pills, I truly do not want to. But how can I trick my brain into not needing or wanting them?

i had protected blow job with condom and did fingered her vagina . I'm afraid whether anything happened to me or not becoz after that encounter i had some back pain and fever.

At the time my viral count was 6million. I being young and dumb, felt no effects at the time so I ignored it. I am now 47 years old, and am back at the doctor. Waiting on biopsy to see if any damage. My question is, I have been offered a job at 100,000 k a year, a big move and the dream job I have been waiting for. If I start the interferon treatment, will I be incapacitated to a point I will not be able to work? I have heard horror stories of treatment.

We do see a counsellor and a pyschiatrist. She is on medication. (many of them in fact). Unfortunately, she has hit a solid wall of fear and can't seem to break through. Her medical team is one of the best; she just is afraid and they want her to work through it. right now she wants me to commit her (yet again) so she can get the "right care". After going through this twice already, I know this is not the way to go but I can't convince her of anything right now.

Hi. Yes, this is a very common fear....especially in people with anxiety. When one has anxiety we tend to dwell more on it, creating a vicious cycle. I think therapy would do you a lot of good in teaching you how not to worry so much about this. It's become your main focus while taking away the joy of living for you. You don't want to miss a moment of your life, or wake up one day an old person, wondering where the years went....you will have worried them away.

I have been so nervous and so scared for six weeks that I cant think straight. My latest fear is that I didnt see them open the need at the clinic before drawing my blood. Is this totally irrational? I am scared I could have now gotten infected.

When I was little my dad would take off my pants and underwear and move me to the couch, he'd already be naked. I don't remember what he'd do from there, I tried to block it out. And as a teenager he'd come into my room and touch me.. I fear him all the time, im scare he'll do it again. I can't sleep sometimes because I'm so scared. I want to tell someone so they can help me.. But I don't know who.

I get so nervous when talking to people sometimes that I kind of feel as though I'm having some sort of depersonalization. It's hard to explain but whenever I'm at work and I have to talk to one of my customers I can get so nervous that I can't concentrate on what they're saying. I then space out, and my thoughts begin rushing. When this happens I sort of lose myself within the sensation and I try to grasp what's going on, but I'm quickly overwhelmed with pure fear.

Hey I have been taking percocet 10 for almost two years. I take 3 a day. One when I wake up, one in the afternoon and one at night. Sometimes I do go over my personal limit by taking a half a few hours after my third. I wanna kick this habit all together but unfourtanetly I have a three year old daughter and can not go to detox for five days. I am a dedicated mother and feel mass amounts of guilt for doing this.

I keep calling her and get assurance. Them after some time I had a fever around 99 I though I m positive so went for test. A month later came negative but after just 1 day I though its false and I felt pain in legs and burning sensation in legs . gone for test again at 3 months negative. Then at 4 month negative. Then after one day I went for massage and kissed a girl on her cheeks and just touch her vegina. Again gone for test. Negative. Now in Feb a girl gave me ******* for 5-10 second.

you people are truly some of the most genuine kind of people and that was and is refreshing... coming up on 2 weeks away from long term suboxone maintenance. tough thing to have done and am still rough at time. that being said for all that it has done for me it was a kick in the butt to go thru sickness.... AGAIN..... i got on it to stop using heroin and guess what... that happened.

Hi!! Glad you are here! I see so many posts on here where I can literally feel the fear and desperation when I read! I would just like to say.....Don't fear the withdrawals! Look at them as a tunnel to a clean life! It's something you just have to do in order to live the way you ultimately want. I stayed on drugs for years and years, because I was too scared of enduring a week of WDs?????
