I’ve recently began to think this is something I want to get looked at but I’m 21 and don’t know if it too late to talk to a doctor. I also have old style parents so it doesn’t not matter my age I will likely be judged for seeking a doctor

You get anxious about social stuff

Bro worried about what someone else thinks regarding his own mental & body wellness check ups for his own life as if anyone has to know or as if it matters s***s wild

Its not too late, not even close.

People will judge you regardless. Do what you need to do for yourself so those judgements dont mattter anymore

Weird feeling in your stomach as if it’s tightening up anytime you’re out in public aka that “butterfly feeling”

Weird breathing patterns

Too self aware of your surroundings especially the people around you

Noticing every little detail

In your head most of the time, even when around other people

Thinking of a million possible outcomes of situations that haven’t occurred yet or may never occur

Feeling physically drained when out in public for even just a short period of time

Purposely avoiding any and all social interactions whenever possible

i found out at 19 it’s never too late lol

Go see a doc and you'll prolly get pills. They'll make you numb too so don't expect a miracle d***.

@op have u tried marijuana?

hey guys i want to get a drivers license but im 13 is it too late?

yep, I chose to overcome it myself...never bothered getting meds for it. I only really get anxious during confrontations now not normal conversations.

Imagine not getting a licence at 7

Heard mushrooms are also good in micro doses

first of all, your parents are a******s if they look down on you for seeking help. that's not being 'old school', that's being toxic.

matter fact, if you still live with them, they are probably a huge reason why you have social anxiety. work hard and move out. my social life blossomed when I was kicked out at 18.
i've always had social anxiety that was rooted in feelings of inadequacy. therapy can help. I've never taken prescription d**** for social anxiety but depending where you are, they could help but only if you're working with a therapist.

social anxiety will never truly go away but you can get ahead of it where it's not a problem anymore. have a solid core group of friends (2-3 is all you need), work on yourself (workout daily, listen to standup comedies, have good sleep hygiene), and get out there and join social activities (sport leagues, meetups.)

you deserve to be happy
