My name is Jason. I am a 33 year old social anxiety sufferer
My name is Jason. I am a new member to the Social Anxiety Blog. I am a long-time social anxiety sufferer. I just turned 33, and for the past fifteen years or so, I've struggled with shyness and social anxiety, along with major depression and loneliness. I live in Southern California, and I have been wanting to join some sort of a group for people who have this disorder. My life has been greatly affected as a result of my fears and social anxieties, and I'm desperate to make some monumental changes. I want to start living!

I'm new too
Hi - I'm new too. Actually I'm new to the whole internet communicating thing. This is the first blog I've ever been on.
I've had social anxiety for... well it seems like forever, but I first noticed it really starting to affect my life when I started in the workforce. My health was affected, relationships, self-esteem, driving etc. ... etc. What's worse, I've managed to get by without talking to anyone about it! Anyway for the past year I've been trying some new techniques that enables me to bring some joy back in my life. I admit it has been alot of persistent hard work - but I'm getting there. The thing to remember is you can get there! It is possible to have a joyful life because others have done it and are doing it! I remind myself of this everyday.
