Smile Allow Me To Introduce Myself...

Hi!
It's taken me a very long time to get to the point of typing this, and I still don't know what to say! But here it is:
I'm Sade (Think Shar-day), I'm 21 (take 2 months) and I've been suffering with social anxiety for 10 years now. I've only know for about 4 of those years that such a thing existed.
I've never met anybody else with social anxiety (or if I did, they hid it well), and I'm hoping to find the support and understanding here that I have been so desperate for. Maybe this will help on the (frustratingly long) road to recovery. I hope so...

Hi!
Yes I am british, but my name is of African origin.

Welcome to the forum, I remember Sade, "smooth operator"

I too went along for ages before realising there is a name for the oddness I was putting up with daily, hopefully you will find the forum helps.
