Re: looking back with a sigh

M8, I'm a 60-yr-old single guy living in a 3-storey townhouse - on my top floor i have a couple of slobbies who open the window wide on the coldest day in history because they don't know about...

Re: i have oppertunities to go out but dont!

I don't like going out much either - my phone don't hardly ever ring, and when it does I usually make a face and don't pick up.

I like to be alone

Re: Who knows what caused their anxiety?

Ben, I think we're pushing at an open door - SA is acquired not inherited, but that doesn't make it any less real.

If it were definitely inherited, then some way of dealing with it might...

Re: Friday Night with Heartache and Loss

This comes back to the question of 'bonding', or 'developing' a relationship, which I think we have posted about on previous threads.

Forgive me if I have forgotten something which you have...

Re: Friday Night with Heartache and Loss

Hi Hgraham, I so know where you are coming from.

My conclusion was that if I cannot 'mesh' with other other people, then I better be on my own - it's not a good time to be considering career...

Re: Anyone else find this time of year especially difficult?

Hogmanay seems to be the big one north of the border - what do Scots people do over the Christmas period?

Down south, there is very limited resistance to the idea of spending New Year's Eve alone,...

Re: Anyone else find this time of year especially difficult?

I find this time of year the worst because for November and December it gets darker and colder and very often wetter. It is also my busy time at work so I get physically knackered (but my bank...

Re: how many types of 'Social Anxiety'?

Re: Pushing yourself v. giving in to it
