I am 20 years old. I've had various
problems which I think relate to anxiety
for a long time, but ive always assumed it
would go away. Thing is it has started to
annoy me in recent months and i'd like it
fixed.
For one, I get really nervous when I have
to ring someone I dont know up on the
phone. I actually rang up about a job a
few hours ago and I could feel my heart
racing. I couldn't get my words out
properly. (i have a bit of a speech
problem anyway. I cant help speaking
really fast and people often ask me to
repeat myself) possible related??
I also found myself becoming very anxious
when a gil came onto me at a party
recently. We went upstairs to a bedroom
and I became so nervous that my mouth
actually became dry for the 1st time in my
life. These nerves meant that I couldn't
get an erection. I made my excuses and
left.
I really want to be able to live my life.
Whatever is wrong with me is making me
feel like life is just passing me by. I
feel like a spectator rather than a
player.
Please help.
Thx!

Sounds like social anxiety. Or maybe your
just really shy. I get that way too. I
hate talking to people I don't know. The
best way to do it is just force yourself.
Maybe it will gat easier with time.
