Been suffering from some extreme social-anxiety/self-consciousness lately. Nearly Everytime I am around people, a very high amount of tension, feeling uncomfortable, feeling judged and watched, etc.
Give two shits about the opinion or thought of other people and worry about yourself. Maybe it's your paranoia, maybe you just get together with people who do not deserve your time.
Sounds like you have generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). If you cant do it alone or its to the point its debilitating, go get checked out by a psychiatrist. Or have your primary doc write you a referal for one. They will probably put you on a SSRI like paxil or zoloft and therapy if you ask for it. You dont have to stay on the medicine forever just long enough to get over the hump.
