I need serious help, NOW!!!!!?!
Question: i know i have a problem i just don't know what it is
I start to cry when i'm around a lot of people. i just start to shake & i have even cried in public. At a Baby shower, at the movies, & on a train. i don't know why, i just do. when i looked up social anxiaty, i read that it means that you have stage fright, shyness. i'm not shy at all & i was in acting classes last year so i don't have stage fright
& sometimes, i really want to talk w/ someone, but when i have the oppurtunity to talk w/ someone, i find that i'd rather be alone. other times, when i'm around people, i try to talk alot because i feel bad for those people who just sit there because i don't want to talk.
My best friend--my only friend--is always there. but sometimes, i have nothing to say to her and i feel bad because, i feel that she's bored being around me.
and i always cry because i have no one to be with. i now that i'm not like regular teen and that i think differently.
i even tried to attempt suicide. HELP!!

First of all, social anxiety means the expectation of a negative evaluation by others. Stage fright can create anxiety but I wouldn't considered social anxiety. Don't worry about crying-everyone cries. You may cry because you suppress lots of emotions and refuse to deal with them. It may be unresolved issue bubbling to the surface at inappropriate times.
Some words of wisdom: You are not alone. Everyone (even the popular pretty people) feel neglected,overlooked, and misunderstood. I am not sure how old you are, but let everyone catch up with you mentally. Keep yourself busy doing things that would better YOU and the world around you. Journal, befriend older people by get involved in a social activity like a charity or perhaps getting a part time job. You might find a kinship with someone who can act as a "mentor".
AND next time that you have suicidal thoughts..please seek help. You say you have a voice..so use it. Speak up...and Speak out. I promise once you get through all of this...you will be celebrated as the wonderfully unique individual that you are :)

Sweetie,you need to seek out some serious help NOW! If you have attempted suicide,this is a crisis. Go to your nearest Emergency Room and tell them you are very depressed,need help and attempted suicide.They will refer you somewhere where you will get the help you need.
i don't think that the social part of it is a problem. people go through stages and that is probably what is happening to you.
the thought of suicide, on the other hand, is a serious and poor decision.
my advice is to receive professional help on the issues from a psychologist.
Have your Doctor percribe some Paxil for you and the world wont seem so gloomey.Good luck
you can email me if you want to talk : )

my sister had horrible panic attacks that sound like what you described. she wouldnt even go in public after she started having them and got really depressed before she could see a doctor.you need to find a doctor to see whats really going on with you though because everyone is different.
Urgh im 15 and losing all my friends =[[
feel useless
you need to go to help!
Don't flatter yourself. You aren't the only abnormal one :)
I am bipolar type 2, have grown up in the shadows of four successful siblings and a perfect twin sister, have an exceptionally high IQ that has proven no benefit to me whatsoever, and I have been hospitalized due to prescription overdose and extreme suicidality. I am literary-obsessed and write more than I breathe. I philosophize as a daily activity and debate truth value and absolutism with pitiful Spanish teachers.
You aren't alone, kid.
you need to see a dr. you will have to talk to the therapist about it. don't worry about crying, therapists are used to that. please see someone before it gets worse. good luck.

The best help I can give you is a phone number to call. 911
You need to be seen by a Dr. without delay.
And you would greatly benefit from Counseling / Therapy over a number of months.
Often when a person is in crisis, small or ordinary things in life can feel like an impassible wall. Counseling / Therapy and Medications can help you to view life in a more manageable manner.
There is hope ahead for you!
It sounds like you are very in touch with your feelings.
You know yourself very well. You could start by making an appointment to talk to your school guidance counselor.
If you want an appointment right away, tell them you are feeling very badly and cannot wait very much longer for an appointment. You sound depressed. If the suicidal feelings come back, please go to the ER right away. Please hang in there and get some help. Good Luck.
Maybe you need professional help, but I've heard of something like this. It sounds like your mood changes a lot. Maybe need to get prescribed medicine for that, but see a doctor first. Hang in there. If you ever want to talk, I'm here okay.
Yes hun you realy need some professional counseling.

I'm glad you're still here and that suicide didnt work.
There are social anxities that we dont realize we have. Like fears . Maybe fears of rejections, or being ignored, or feelings of not being good enough, or unable to even want to try things. ( not saying this is you)
Sometimes talking about the issues only hinder the healing or growth towards bettering yourself.
Instead of talking about things just find something to do with your friend that doesnt involve a lot of talking at first. Maybe just walking somewhere. riding bikes, hanging out in the park watching others doing dumb things. As it give you a chance to laugh and eases some of the tensions you are holding in about life.
Take a deep look at yourself. Is there something in your own personal life, That you're holding onto , that may be better if you let go? Sometimes we are afraid to let go of the past so we won't step into the present towards the future. Where new things wait .
Maybe you could do something constructive like making something, a cake or cookies whatever. Then take them to share with your firend or put that are alone. This will give you an opportunity to have something to talk about, and help you feel good.
God didnt want you to die. As you are still here. you're not with anyone because you havent allowed yourself to come out of your shell yet. Then God hasnt been able to bring the right people in to your life for you to feel good with.
Begin thinking positive. As from what I';mm reading here is negative views on yourself.
You're not different . Just uniquely your own person. The way you are intended to be. All you have to do is fine tune who you are. So you can know what you are to be in life.
You are a very sensitive person.sometimes things around you can effect you sub conciously as well.
Heyyy! calm down! What your having isn't social anxiety, but panic attacks, which explains the tears, emotion, and suicudal thoughts. You should talk to your Doctor to get meds for it asap...but don't worry...lots of people suffer from this, and it's no big deal. As far as the other things go...I LOVE to read, lol! And I don't know many people that listen to my kind of music either! What kind of music do you listen too???
You should e-mail me sometime, it actually sounds like we would have a LOT in common, lol! Talk to me on here, or IM or e-mail me at: jessie_1913@yahoo.com
Ttys! Stay strong! =)
