Answers:
I feel for you...it's terrible to be self conscious all the time. My sister was alot like that, she didn't even attend family functions,and could not stand having any attention focused on her. Long story short, she went to a psychiatrist who prescribed paxil for her, and she is a new person. Not nervous, more social and she doesn't worry about stuff all the time. I don't know if this is the right answer for you, but it couldn't hurt to ask about anti depressants some of which are prescribed for social anxiety.
Best of luck!

think you should start snorting cocaine..

Just try speaking to your family about it and if you cant then email need-help-with-life@hotmail. com

Hon, I feel for you. I am currently suffering from the same thing. I refuse to leave the house, I hate talking on the phone, and I do not enjoy any happy event. (Anhodenia)
I am currently on meds to build up my glands, because the doctor says they are tired. It has helped a little, but I would talk to a Dr. about all this. You shouldn't have to feel this way. It's not fair, and could lead to other problems.
I wish you the best of luck, Hon.
And, if you could keep me in mind, to let me know how you are doing.
Good luck Hon.
