i don't. i don't know if i'm completely normal and i'm just overreacting so i'm going to ask you guys. here's whats been going on... i get really tense in unfamilar social situation like if i meet a friends friend i'm very tense cause i don't know them. I sweat under even the smallest amount of social pressure. I feel hopeless a lot of them time and would rather sleep then face the world. Like the only place i fit in in where ever i am when i'm resting. I sometimes feel like there is some peeping tom and i'm afraid that someone will bust into my apartment and kill me. I stay inside a lot to aviod social situation or even seeing people that don't like me. i'm 16 and has never had a boyfriend because i always get tongue tied or say the wrong thing and wind up like a little sister more then a girl friend. i think i have low selfesteem but i like when ppl call me pretty and like to stare at myself when i look nice in a picture. i have a hard time falling asleep when i'm at home by myself because i'm afraid to let my guard down. and i think i might be addicted to porn.

can anyone help me.

Hi:

Look on the anxiety board you will find a lot of people with similar situations.

Hi Myself, the first thing that comes to my mind is that you never learned how to protect yourself. How did you get into porn?

You sound like me. I can never meet a friends friend because I get extremely nervous and sweat and shake. I avoid those situations like the plague now but have become down and kinda depressed. I think you should look for councelling if you can before it really starts to get out of hand. Im falling down a slippery slope and do not wish this on anyone,

Take care, VC

As far as normal, Nobody and everyone is normal, from my therapist mouth. All I want to be is normal, he laughed and said you are.
