is this the same?

Hi all,

I dont know what is wrong with me, I most of the same symptons, light headed dizzy feels like my heart is gonna explode out fo chest, scared to go anywhere incase I pass out, etc. I seem to feel worse when put in an unfamiliar sittuation or a one on one conversation?? does this make sense? Things feel to real, and I feel that people are always looking at me thinking what a weirdo. Anyways Im glad to c that I am not the only one, and I dont feel so embarassed talking to my doctor about it now.

Sounds more like a social phobia. Is a bit of a difference. though symptoms can be shared. Try the anxiety forum and ask about social phobia. You should find it to be indentical to your own situation. Treatments can differ. It is a common phobia. Both the anxiety forum and this one are similar enough. You will see a lot of people use both.
