Social Anxiety Disorder. For four years i dealt with it. i finally made myself go to my college psyhologist. he told me what i had and that medication would be a good route. i felt like my life was saved. an end was finally in sight. so i called up a psychiatrist and the soonest appt is over a month from now. i can't deal with that. i took such a plunge, i overcame my interpersonal avoidance to tell my parents and counselor, (this is one of those conditions in which you have to prove that you're stronger than the disorder before you can overcome it) and i finally took this initiative, these steps to save my own life and to save my dreams. and now i have to sit here in suspended despair and watch a month of my wonderful new college life go straight to waste. this isn't fair in the least, does anyone know a way to get around this? i'm this close to buying shady imitators off the internet.
