This video covers the basic signs and symptoms of S.A.D…as well as some treatment options. I personally do not know anyone who suffers from this disorder, but i know that, like all other disorders, it can be a crippling experience. Please seek help if the described signs apply to you, or to someone you know. If you have any questions then please go ahead and ask, i will do my best to answer them. The song in the intro is “Overburdened” by Disturbed, from the Ten Thousand Fists album. Thanks for watching, and enjoy!

My upbringing and …
My upbringing and current work situation has molded me into a very nervous and stressed person. I recently started seeing a psychologist because of my overwhelming anxiety, and the treatment has been helpful.

I think I have this. I have gotten to the point where I don’t leave my house because when I do i feel like everyone is watching me. I sweat when I am around people I don’t know. Sometimes just the thought of going to the store causes a panic attack.

very good job man. ive been dealing with these things and im in highschool and its really hard im trying to get help for it.
I would recommend a …
I would recommend a psychologist trained in CBT. (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). If you have social phobia, know that it is not who you are but something that you suffer from. It is highly treatable and you will be cured if you work at it. Many assume there is no hope so don’t seek help. But this is not true at all.

My old doctor used to judge me all the time, which is why I hated her anc could never tell her anything but she retired and I have a new doctor, but I don’t know her well so I’m finding it rather hard to bring up this problem I’m having.

i have this disorder and I’m only 13..I’m also very depressed about my life because i know when I’m older i will be alone and my family will not be there for me..so all i can think off is killing my self when ever find a gun..but I’m also afraid of dieing
i just want this too end..and be with my family forever because i only feel safe around them..

There’s no really easy way to tell them…you may not even be able to. In the end you may have to seek help alone; a true sign of internal strength. I wish you luck.

No problem, I’m glad to do it :-] Hopefully I’ll get another mic soon and can resume making videos.

tell me about it
wow… i guess i do …
wow… i guess i do have Social Anxiety. I never really noticed I wasn’t socializing much. I can’t tell anyone that I think I’m sick (because I believe I’m schizophrenic and have OCD aswell), because I can’t talk to anyone without feeling like their going to judge me, and because I don’t like talking to people about anything. If I tell people I think somethings wrong with me they’ll look at me differently and tell everyone else they know…
Is there some way I can tell them I need help?
i hate this …
i hate this disorder i have it..i lost a friend because of it..
Are we anxious …
Are we anxious becoz we think too much of ourselves and we dont want this fake image to crumble in front of others when we talk to them? Are we trying to protect this fake image?
