Im new to this forum I have been suffering with SA for almost 15 years. I spent the first 18 years of my life as a fairly confident person. Somewhere in the year that I turned 18 my self esteem was destroyed. I now dred public places mainly where I will see people that I know. I feel very uncompfortable making small talk, often feeling as though people are looking at me judgmentaly. I try to cut conversations with people short and usually walk away fealing like some kind of freak. I have tried to force myself into social situations that ended disasterastly, like the one time I joined a bible study group with my wife everyone was taking turns reading a book when it came my turn I read not quite a paragraph with a cracking voice. I became so nervous that I could not speak I felt that the walls were closing in around me. I have taken a number of drugs from the SSRI class with little results. I really don't know what to do next.

Welcome to the forums smith.

Set yourself small goals and beating this might become more realistic.
