Yeah. I think if you join a community online though, after awhile, you will become more comfortable. Especially if you're not use to talking over the internet.

Wouldnt call it a disease since im not sick and yes its normal...

Yes, I'd say it's normal. If you're using the internet to do anything social and you have a social anxiety, there's obviously going to be some impact. It may be lesser than real-life but that doesn't mean it's not there.

Normal, but it might start to fade a little bit after some time on the web sight. For example, if you took the time to know all of us, you would see that for the most part IIN is made up of nice people, and you don't have to fear judgment!

Disease? My friend, 20 years ago this was called being shy. You are not sick, I hope you know that in your heart. The pills a doctor will prescribe to you will not help you in the long run. TALKING to a psychiatrist is what helped me, I wish I could easily explain the steps he took in my case..
Thinking of this as a disease will only help to deepen your lack of confidence in yourself!

smile : the little tramp :)

i understand you im the same way its normal.

Glad to know i'm not alone feeling like that. I guess it's normal.
