Re: New flat but already anxious about neighbour
I'm finding I'm posting a lot on here lately about things that have reminded me of my SA at it's worst. So bear in mind what I post is more about me than anyone else... and may not be the best advice...

Re: Introversy and SA (Long post)
I'd really recommend you try to do this. I say that as someone who can relate to a lot of the things you've written and wish I'd done that at the time. I had CBT later but doing CBT while at Uni,...

Re: Rate the last film you watched (4)..
'Adoption' - a Hungarian film on MUBI (leaving tonight). I'd give it 8/10. A very humanistic and thoughtful film, and exactly the sort of thing I was looking for yesterday evening.

NHK's 'Somewhere Street' (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OlSqzS5eopw) is relaxing YouTube TV. A Japanese film crew with a steadicam, walking around places across the world. This is a rare one from...

Re: Only about 30% of shyness is genetics
I've been fascinated by this nature vs nurture question for a long time.
I'm not sure if it's fully factored into the 30% (maybe it is) but people's temperament can have a strong effect on the...

Re: TV programs you're watching?
Not seen that yet. I remember when it was on TV but didn't get around to watching on catch up.
I managed to find Smilie's People to download and just watched episode 1. Great stuff. I'm getting...

Re: TV programs you're watching?
Not yet but going to try to get that on DVD soon. I followed the basic plot but often lost track of the characters being referred to in dialogue.

Re: TV programs you're watching?
Just watched Chernobyl which is as good as everyone says it is. As long as you like ultra serious and bleak fact based dramas. Which I very much do.
And the original 'Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy'...

Re: I want to change before it's too late
I work as a Benefits Assessor. For local government I should add, not the DWP - we don't sanction people, and the benefits I deal with can still be awarded, even if people get their main DWP benefits...

Re: I want to change before it's too late
The turning point for me was getting a job in the public sector. I'd had lots of jobs for private companies where the drive was maximising profit. That impulse is sadly being applied to parts of the...

Back after a very long break
Hello
I last posted here about 10 years ago. Under a few different names but Marwood was the one I kept for longest.
I'm not quite sure what's brought me back. I can't see myself posting very...
