Is it normal to feel this tense?

Is it normal to be so flipping tense when I talk to people.I know its related to my anxiety but seriously I cant even look people in the eye any more.Whenever I talk to them all im thinking about is how long before this gets awkward.I actually avoid people so much because of this ..WHY WHY WHY???

    I hate being around people in real life too! It got me into so much trouble. Then again it also got me out of alot of trouble too. Heh Heh. When I was at school I didnt speak to anyone until year9. I got to get out of so many practical lessons and speaking tests, assessments, but I also got bullied and the teachers tended to get pissy at me for not talking to them when they told me to read out of a textbook or something like that. Most of the time no-one noticed me though. Its like I wasnt even there most of the time. Was awkwardthat time when my teacher asked me if I was scared of them. I wouldnt look at anyone so she was like in my face and I just closed my eyes till I could feel her breath on my face anymore. So many good times...

    Talk to us at IIN instead. Most of us are losers. You'll have friends here.

    Sounds like social anxiety.
