Possible social anxiety/other social issue? Need opinions?

Guys intimidate you but you know they are everywhere.

I can only speak from experience, it could be a number of things. The question is are you in control of your emotions, do you have issues with your esteem, have you been hurt by males in your childhood, or in relationships? Answer those questions first because that will pin point the main issue and then at that time you can begin the disecting process. Example; I was hurt as a youth by males meaning I as molested, I hung out as a young adult and dated not realizing that I was harbouring emotional instability due to that. I then realized that I was suffering from depression and self esteem issues. I am now an adult but struggle with going out on dates or leaving the house for that matter, but that is because I'm away from my comfort zone. I'm in a strange state where the people act differntly than what I'm use to so now I have trust issues. On the up side it could be that you are growing up (maturing) and your just doing some self searching. Again to get the the problem do process of elimination and then you can nit pick.

You are probably pretty smart. You had alot of friends, so that means you are likeable. Maybe you are just annoyed with people. Did you recently have a bad relationship? I am a guy, I am the same way. I just don't like most people. I would much rather hang out by myself. I don't get nervous around people, I just feel frustrated and awkward most of the time. I'm sure there is nothing wrong with you. If you feel like you are having a real problem then maybe you should talk to someone. Good luck :)

Hey, ya know people change, its possible you're just going through some kinda transitional period...or you're being lazy or what not. Maybe you just don't feel like emotionally investing in anyone (especially the opposite sex) right now. I think it's normal, but potentially dangerous because withdrawing yourself is typically not a good thing. I know where you're coming from with the phone thing - I can't even stand to listen to my voice mail messages no matter who it is (it's weird). Maybe you preferr hanging out with the girls becaue you feel like you can just kinda "chill" and don't really have to be too emotionally invested (to repeat myself) -- it's possible and normal to an extent. Maybe you're just socially burned out - or maybe you just want to experience more time with yourself...and your thoughts. Or just maybe, all those years of being a social butterfly has simply began to bore you. I think you're looking for something new, something exciting, something outside of the norm...socially and perhaps romantically. I don't think you're depressed or withdrawn, you're probably just bored at the moment.

Welcome to the female world of mood swings.

As long as you still have friends and arent a total recluse, dont worry about it. See if it continues .

Make sure your energy level is up. Take vitamins. Eat well.

Im not sure how old you are. By your language, Im guessing youre a teen.

Perhaps you are maturing faster, than others and frankly..youre bored with the activities they do.

Maybe you need "head time" . This is a big age of changes.Physical, chemical/hormonal, mental. Deciding on your future.

Personally, I do what I feel like doing. Its my life, so I dont try to figure myself out. Im not a trained psychologist.

Im just a person living, surviving and trying to keep it together, best I can.

To be honest I think God is working on you and molding you into the person he feels you should be. Maybe he's showing you to stear away from men so you can work on yourself and your own inner piece and happiness. I've been depressed all my life and when I found God I found purpose and everything made sense. Maybe he's trying to teach you to learn about yourself so you can love your self wich will prepare you for when he puts that special man in your life. You can't love anyone else till you love yourself. Maybe find a girlfriend and go to church one Sunday. You may discover your answer. Try to hold your head up. If you dwell to much on what could be wrong with you you may develop a problem. You could just be going through changes and need something more to stimulate your mind. Think about that cause you may also need to evaluate your friendships and find a good friend that is willing to try and understand and work with you on finding a wholesome hobby. I'm sorry if my beliefs are different I just am telling you what worked for me because i've been there. I couldn't figure it out and I went to church with my neighbor one day and sobbed my eyes out because it all clicked when I felt God in my presense. Good luck girl and I'll pray for you. Your beautiful and sometimes if you force yourself to smile it's addicting and you'll snap outta your funk.

Hey- so sometimes I feel that way to! No don't worry there's nothing wrong with you. N if your concerned at all with thinkin maybe you might be gay or confused why you try to avoid guys phone calls? But no don't worry alot of girl's go through that. Your probly more open with girls because you feel more comfortable around them. You don't feel like you have to impress them, and the part where you would just like to stay home. Is probly bc sometimes you just like to chill out and you feel comfy at home. But if your staying in bc you feel shy and feel like you can't be yourself so you rather stay in your comfort zone, don't be afraid to go have a good time but still feel comfortable. Maybe try inviting friends over to your house n u'll adapt more with ur friends so maybe you would like to go out a little more. But the guy thing it's just a fear you gotta try n overcome with what guys will think of you. Or what you want them to see and don't see. Just try and be yourself and DONT CARE what they think of it. You'll find yourself feeling alot better about social surroundings. GOODLUCK!

I am so happy, it was only a 35 minute drive ( 70 minutes total) but absolutely no sign of anxiety or panic i shopped till I dropped - brilliant! I will now go for the next stage DUAL CARRIAGE way, probably at the weekend, with my husband accompanying me first then the solo drive, if successful the final stage of driving on motorway

Beat Anxiety And Panic Attacks Naturally?

Well...maybe you are just growing up and learning to enjoy being with yourself. That is a good thing. Probably your priorities are changing now with respect to what you consider fun.

Liking girlfriends over boyfriends...well some people just have their preferences. I tend to be the opposite of you and enjoy male friends over female.

Why don't you just come up with things you like to do and invite those who you enjoy being with. There's nothing wrong with that.

I wouldn't worry....I think you're just going through some growing pains.

you may be experiencing a hormonal imbalance, which can be resolved by getting sunlight, and exercise. I always feel a lot more energized if I get out and exercise. You might have to drag your self to do it the first couple of times but after a while you'll feel the effects.

Also diet can affect mood

Maybe because friends don't put pressure on you for

anything more

When Men want to hang out you doon't know if it's just for friendship or more

The more is what you might not want,or causes the anxiety
