The reason Im asking is to see if Im not alone??..my prob is restaurants esp???..I freak out and want to run out, esp if Im sitting with strangers?I get very uncomfortable??..ok perhaps this may not be seen so much as a panick attack, but its beginning to get to me??..like my mum would say, ?ok, lets go to a restaurant together?, now that?s all very well, but I know her, not strangers so how on earth can that help???????has anyone been here? I just sit and dwell to much on the situation, feel my throat getting tight over panick therefore lose my appetite??..its getting me down badly, I feel anyone I meet now or mates I have to avoid this situation??????
I don?t want therapy, I think therapy is for those who feel completely beaten by it, and Im not, its just now I haven?t been out to a restaurant for absolutely ages??????..and due to that length of time have become scared and actually lazy about it????..I keep thinking pple judge and question on what and how much u eat, etc?I feel they are prying and questioning too much, I think I had that once before which put me into this mode?..(I know, ur all prob laughing or confused!!!!!!!!)
It is all in the head prob, its how to overcome, so has anyone else out there been down the same road, or something similar?????????

Well I could no more walk into a roomful of strangers and act 'normal' than I could fly to the moon. I also go to insane lengths to avoid anyone who makes me uncomfortable.

I'm the exact same way.
The thing is that I'm not really afraid of new situations or anything like that. I'm almost an idiot when it comes to trying new things. But I have a hard time handling large groups of people or getting adjusted to people who I don't click with.

And as Ormus said, yes, I have stopped going out clubbing, etc because Ive been in too long, 10 years ago all this would never have crossed my mind..........I just cant seem to socialise, I freeze..........if I met u all tomorrow, gurantee u all would be chatty to each other while Im running out to go home, for comfort............and it would make me cry too, thinkin u lot can chat and do that, have somethin to chat about and well, and Im at a loss!!!!!
Im not the party animal some in here assumed, quite the opposite, and on days when I dont give too tosses about my apperance, I want to tell pple looking at me to feck off..........though they are not looking AT me, if u know what I mean, lord something must be very wrong with me........
When in pubs and that I stay in the corner and even with mate/s feel alone cause Im not a drinker, etc, whatch others enjoy themselves with their boys etc, having fun, while in there I still feel on the outside................
me nervous!
I call meself sad really, I do tink its laziness that I wont up and fight it, though no matter how hard and high ya try the rung halfway up gets broken somehow......

And by the way,
nobody in the whole wide world is really interested about what or how much you eat.
Prying and questioning? Questioning what?
It?s all in the head somehow yes, but you can get it out too.
Have you talked to your mother about those restaurant situations? If not you should, too.
