I have social phobia but it has gotten better. I can go in public places now which for years i avoided. A friend of mine suggested i quit withdrawing from life and started inviting me out which one place he went regularly was the gym. He was a great workout partner that realized i had difficulties. I had to do a lot of self searching and acceptance but willing to better my self and face the fears which was horrible i went to emergency room 3 times with full blown panic attacks. Pills didnt fix my problems i had to put forth effort to get to a better place. Workout partners can be helpful and 24/7 gyms

bro why are you posting in the lottery forum? I will move ur thread to the proper forum, but try to figure out the sites set up my man, I'm pretty sure this is the 2nd time, with that being said, welcome to MC but you need to post in proper areas or no one will see your questions brutha

I've had problems with both myself. I had a hyperactive thyroid and got it treated with radioactive iodine about 6 years ago. within 4 months of getting it fixed I had put on 40lbs of lean mass. pretty much the single best thing I've ever done for myself ever. I could finally sleep. I probably cut my food down 75% and gained weight so I didn't look like a damned aids patient anymore. I used to shake like a chichauah all the time, BP was sky high for no reason. of course I metabolized things super fast so if I drank I got super drunk super fast and hung over harder. I really didn't know how miserable I was until after I got it fixed. it was amazing a few weeks after when I started noticing a change in myself.

I'm sure my anxiety issues were magnified by that as well. I still have problems from time to time but no where near as bad. now it's just sometimes I don't feel like talking to people. not a big deal.
