I was just wondering if anyone has heard of social anxiety in children? I tried to go on a date tonight and got so nervous that I threw up (this has happened before) well I am 29. So I got home and started thinking way back into my life and I am thinking I might have been having this my whole life. I am really embarassed to talk to my doctor about it too, I know I shouldn’t be but every time I try to, I chicken out, so I was just wondering if people out there with this condition have had it a long time or if it just all of a sudden develops.

Believe it or not, I have that "disorder". I become ill in social areas. I have anxiety, I sweat, I`m nervous and I just want to exit-Fast. I began having this in my early 20`s. Doctors cannot do anything about this. Although, ! remedy that works for me is, I take a shot of vodka then a breath mint before I socialize. I do not recommend this for just anyone. But, it helps me greatly. p.s. I don’t drive after -S
