Finally! The results!
Hi all. I took part in a study 10yrs ago. Looking at dopamine's role in social anxiety. Was never given the results, but I've just found them.

Re: How is everyone feeling? (27)
I still think you should expose him. For your sake & others. Exposure will indeed annoy him but take his control away. When people think they can get away with it they have no reason to NOT upset...

Re: How is everyone feeling? (27)
Hate. Yes, a familiar trait of SA for some bizzare reason. I know exactly how you feel, but don't know the answer either. Hope you'll feel better soon.

Re: Success stories with meds
You'll get there. You just have to keep on trying. If at all possible, you could ask your doc to refere you to your local Psychopharmocology clinic, if you have one. If you truely have diagnosed ADHD...

Re: Success stories with meds
Yea thanks guys. There's a lot of stigma around taking 'mind-altering' medications. Even within the SA community. But I've waited long enough and deserve a break. Plus, it is NOT simply a 'short cut'...

Re: Feeling great, but....
Thanks for your input pinkwafer. And you are very correct. But I'm talking a whole group of 12 or more. So out of 12 people none of them wanna hang out with me? That doesn't sound good odds to me....
