In reply to weird part of social phobia, posted by ciaolavida on July 16, 2006, at 17:38:34
I think its normal to feel that way. I think fear of socializing makes staying by yourself look alot more appealing than being around people. Its easier.
From my experience the best way to overcome social anxiety is through practice, or gradual exposure. If you're being treated for social phobia, aren't they advising you on this sort of thing? I don't think I'm understanding how wanting to avoid people is any different from social phobia itself.
