Have you ever had social phobia?do you necessarily think it can be bad?
I wanted to inquire your guy's input, because I believe it can be bad depending on various things like your self confidence ect... Whats another source besides the social? Well, one may get all the emotional benifits other way, like here on createblog  (im being serious), and japanese manga and dramas. Would you agree to some extent?

Uhm, bad? Yeah, it can get to be bad. It can evolve from a nagging feeling, to an everyday thing--that's where social anxiety disorder kicks in. I've been diagnosed with it a few times... and I'm not sure I understand your question; I'm looking at the definition for social phobia [i.e. social anxiety]..and yeah.
I can agree that forums may help, but shows/books/comics/movies? Maybe I misunderstood "dramas," but hearing about others' social lives [real or not] only serves as a bitter reminder.. |

Yeah it can get bad because when people don't have anyone to open up to, they can do multiple of things in place. I kind of have social phobia. I mean, in real life though. I can't make friends so easily because for some reason, I can't speak. I'm not nervous or anything because I don't feel that way, I just feel like if I spoke, nothing good will come out of it so I just keep quiet and nod or say "mhmmm, hmm, yes, k, no, etc." >.> It is kinda bad.. especially if you're emotional/sensitive about what people say about you.

thank you for sharing electric shock. Sometimes i feel that way, about what you said, " just feel like if I spoke, nothing good will come out of it so I just keep quiet..." that's sorta a bad mentallity to have, but sometimes I get it. I do have a friend who I can open up to, maybe I should find more people who I can open up to? hmm. Thank You very much everyone. If you have anything else you want to share, please :)
