I suffer from social anxiety. It has taken control over my life and the way that I approach people. I am afraid to go to certain places because I’m afraid that I will not fit in. I think that I have lost my finacee’ because of it. The communication in our relationship sucks because of this. I want to be able to communicate with her among other people, but instead, I hold everything in until I get upset and I find myself looking for something else to blame it on. I, sometimes take my frustuations out on her for no apparent reason and all she is trying to do is help me. I really need help to get over this thing because I’m starting to breakdown.
i also suffer from social anxiety disorder and it can be agonizing to say the least. i think you should share this with you r fiance so that he doesn’t just think you are shying away from him. its just an ill ness like anything else and its nothing to be ashamed of. have you been to a doctor to discuss this?
maybe a combination of medication and therapy will help. sometimes it feels like your going over the edge but there is help out there and you do not suffer alone.
