There are times when im around people I
feel a chaotic, horryfying feeling of
paralysis, where I cannot talk, my heart
beat thunders and I start sweating too
(especially around women) I feel im being
terryfyingly judged, I have tried some
techniques including self-mind control
which has helped but other then that I
cannot speak, also so weird that when I
drink alchahol it dissapears!!!! I feel
my speech returning and can talk freely,
make freinds and pick up women.. The
worst part is when I am sober these people
look kind of shocked to find me now a
quiet, awkard, weird acting guy, even
worse I know exactly when its happening
and what they are thinking when im in this
mode.
I just dont understand myself, im 25 and I
need help. I have been single all my
life, if I can beat it it would obvously
help.
I recently studied admin where every other
student was female, I self destructed at
times and felt miserable. Yet people
with asian or african decent I feel no
anxiety towards, which has prompted me to
ask the question on the society of western
culture. I litterally feel im talking
to a demon when im talking to a western
mind. My mind is paralysed and horrible
things happen.

Meds Are Not the Only Answer!! Posted: 07-25-04 04:27am
There are many alternatives to taking
prescription meds for the rest of your
life - not to mention the fact that these
meds have side effects that can be worse
than your original problem for heaven sake
at 17 & 25 you need alternatives not
long term mental health meds that could
cause health issues, lose you jobs etc etc
& you can't drink when on them - or
you can be in real trouble.
Alternatives - cbt (cognitive behaviour
therapy)
- natural meds - eg:
sam-e, 5htp(tryptophan), valerian, gingko,
dhea, st johns wort etc etc.
- machines (cost from
about $us200) which affect the brains
functioning to reduce stress, anxiety,
pain, sleep problems, behviour issues etc
check dynamind.Com & alpha-stim.Com re
ces & sound/loght machines.
There that's a start.

I hate drugs of any kind, I allways try to
solve things natures way, not the toxic
way..
