Hey all....
This is my first time on a forum like this and have just received so much comfort knowing that im not alone with my anxieties!
My troubles first started when i was 15, blushing and not being able to look at others when i talked to them, think it stemmed from really low self esteem and bullying.
Anyway, over the years, i managed to kinda cure myself, i completely forgot about the eye contact thing and still blushed but only in certain situations and i just tried to ignore it like it wasnt there. I was really fine and happy.
However, last year i went through a lot of emotional upheaval in my personal life, suddenly these anxities returned and i have been battling with them again since! I feel like im 15 all over again! (im in my mid twenties now!)
Today I made a doctors appointment to ask for help, which i didnt wanna do cos its admitting that i have a problem, i dont know what else to do though as this is ruining my life!
I keep hoping it will just go away again.
Am i doing the right thing in going to the doctor? I just dont wanna get worse.
