gloriousgabe asked:
If any out there to be treated for this disorder can you please fill up the processing. I think he has this disorder and seek help to overcome interference from that really with my life. What was the cost? and also tried the treatment of cognitive behavior? Please let me know that you do.

just take Lexapro
This site has tons of info on social anxiety, and treatment options, such as different medications used, therapies, and groups;
Hope I helped! If I did, choose me as best awnser! =]
LOL, it hard to explain how it works, put an effort, it will pay off.
I was the same way, cant say I’m 100% over it, but it helps
I’m 17 and I’ve had the disorder since I was 13…
OK so Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps… I mean you have to really pay attention and listen for it to work…
Here’s an exercise:
STOP- visualize a stop sign so you can stop any negative thoughts you are having
Rewind…
Replace thoughts with something positive
I’m pretty sure that’s how it went
I don’t know if that’s how I was taught, but that’s how I’ve done it and it works
Also you might be put on medication such as Prozac and Xanax :/
(I have found that both of them work pretty well)
Good luck!
I’m 15 and have had this since…I was 6, at least.
When I was little..I made a list of all the things that made me anxious to do, then I rated them on a scale from 1-10 with 1 being the lowest. I organized the list from lowest to highest and then forced myself to do those things until I got used to them.
I’m still nervous doing most things, but it’s a lot better now.
Basically, I found exposure to the things I feared helped a lot. One therapist tried to make me try CBT but I resisted completely. It only works if you honestly want it to work and you have to work hard.
I tried going to a therapist, but to be honest it never worked out for me. The sites below might help.
Yes, I tried Cognitive Behavior Therapy and it DOES work. I am not completely over my anxiety, but the negative thoughts that consumed my mind have dimished. I think more postively now. I am in therapy at my school now and I wanna try group therapy soon. If you are in college then I highly suggest you look up info about their counseling center and go in and make an appointment. The therapy costs are included into my tuition, so I don’t pay anything! As for the Cognitive Therapy, I did that all on my own. I listened to a 20 step audio series by a gur named Dr. Richards. He had anxiety for 20 years, so he knows what he is talking about. Look up ‘Overcoming Social Anxiety Step-by-Step’ on. Download it and notice that it comes with a workbook too that you will need to read DAILY! That is very important! Good luck to you
Edit: I have never taken meds and I don’t plan to. In response to what the girl above me said, CBT is effective if you do it right and don’t give up! You WILL see results.
I would speak to a therapist. They might be able to give you a good idea about how this works.
