Hi everyone, I stumbled onto this site accidently while at meetup.com.
I never really though that I had a social phobia, but I'm starting to
realize I do, but I don't think it's extreme.

Let me explain why I think I might have social phobia and please tell
me if i'm correct:

1. I just just finished a class where the desks where positioned so
that they form a square, so everyone can see each other. I get really
nervous in class. My body heat increases and I tend to figite with my
glasses. There are times when I want to raise my hand and participate,
but then when I talk, I get so nervous that my voice changes(becomes
less clear) and then there is another sudden raise in my body
temperature.

2. There are some people I don't nervouse talking with. Some people I
ca talk to no problem. But then there are other people that I get
nervous around especially with girls I like (or some other girls). In
those situations, I just blank out. They are talking to me, and there
are things I want to say, but they don't come out as I want them to
and sometimes I just become silent.

3. I get nervouse alot in public. Most of the time, when I am eating
in public, I feel tense. But then there are times when I feel
confident. I am not insecure, but maybe I am because I feel tense most
of the time.

It's my first year university so I'm starting to really notice it. I
met people but none of them have really become my friends. They are
more like people to ask for help or copy answers lol. I guess I can't
really open up to them to start a friendship.

Well, it's nice to let other people know about my problems. This is
the first time I told anyone about this.
