hey i'm janna, and i'm struggling with an eating disorder...

[Sininabin]

Simple put it i'm becoming antisoical, may action are just a result of that

[spooner]

sorry, mon, you can't "develop" an antisocial personality disorder. You have to have it from childhood.

[Apples+Oranjes]

Nice, I didn't think I'd get any replies.

Also, just so no ones offended in the future, I may make a lot of fun of myself.... it's how I deal with things.

So no one take anything I say to offense, I am a very empathetic/sympathetic/understanding person, but when I feel badly about myself if I poke fun at myself it helps me remember that things arent as bad as I always think they are.

And, for further clarification, I would never poke fun at anyone else.

[Apples+Oranjes]

aww Lemongait, welcome and good luck ...Social anxiety is totally treatable, and I hope that you overcome it.

I dealt with some severe social anxiety a few years ago... to the point where I didn't exit my house for a good two to three months. I overcame it with therapy, and moral support...friends and family wouldn't allow me to seclude myself anymore. My mom started taking me for simple rides through the country, then through the city, then into stores with her, etc.

I was still very shy around people, and upset... but it subsided the more others, and myself forced me to deal with it, and social situations.

It helps to have a really outgoing intense friend of some sort, that will help sort of coach you into being comfortable in those situations. I can't even describe how intense it was for me to be around even the people that I LOVED, for a while.... and it got better, and now I'm like I was when I was a little girl...I'm crazy-fuckin-out there, and not afraid anymore. :)

If you ever need to talk about it feel free to PM me :)

Hi everyone,
I'm Jen, I suffer from depression the days I don't take my meds. The days I do, well it's still there, I'm just not suffering as much. I also like to self medicate with alcohol. Thought for a while I might be an alcoholic. Probably am, just still in denial. :( Aside from that I get by in life just fine. hehehe.
