I was like that a few years back and I'm still uncomfortable in areas like malls and such, being with friends and my girlfriend is what fixes it for me.

Define uncomfortable...anxious/nervous? If so, you probably have anxiety over something like other people's perception of you, or maybe you have a worry that you will do or say something embarassing?

Sounds a bit agoraphobic - The key thing is to not let it get to you. Try to think back to when it all started and try to just keep on tackling open spaces "normally" (think to yourself nothing bad is going to happen, for example).

Yup, even if there is little to no changes in your image you'll still feel better, trust me.

I had something like that, it was quite dreadful, to be honest. Part of it was I was rejecting my feelings and it was wearing me out.

It was a long anxiety current, it wasn't stopping, and I always felt like I was doing something wrong, and I couldn't get rid of it either.

I was always worried about making someone angry or getting into trouble or a conflict etc. I'm not sure if what you are going through is similar. It was a hard experience to describe, and I still can't explain it to people, they still don't understand.

Eh. Happens to me too. Usually when I'm not doing anything on the side I get paranoid a bit. If I'm going to to work or have been in recent contact with friends I'm fine. When I myself become a recluse it affects my thinking when in public.

Light one. Perelman's been rumoured to have one (check Gregor Perelman on google and you'll undestand he is but an autistic). To the OP: Do you like having grown hair and long fingernails 'cause you're too bored to groom yourself? (this ain't no joke - asperger's syndrome again)

Seriously, don't attempt to diagnose someone with Asperger's Syndrome over the internet. It doesn't work that way.

Well, we can't really help you if you aren't even sure what might cause you to act the way you do. Are you shy around others? If so, that might be the reason.

Jumping to conclusions and telling someone that they have Asperger's Syndrome over an internet forum is NOT helpful in any shape or form. In fact, it's more helpful to tell them to go see a psychiatrist.

Exposing yourself to that which makes you uncomfortable is actually what will help you overcome the discomfort.

Social Anxiety Disorder. See a therapist and they can give you medication so you don't feel like you are having a heart attack when you are around people.

Did you do something that's bothering you? If you're being bothered about not feeling comfortable in public, either talk to someone close to you about it or just try to stop thinking about it for a while.

I have severe panic attacks with my social anxiety, and medication should never be your first option in dealing with something like that. You will not get better for the long term if you can't overcome it on your own. If in addition to finding ways to cope and suppress your anxiety naturally you wish to have a fast-working type of "chill pill" as it's called, it should be used like an inhaler for asthmatics. You don't suck on that thing all day, you only use it if you're about to go over the edge and pass out. and for people who are thinking that improving physical appearance will make social anxiety go away, it will not. insecurity isn't the same thing as social phobias and panic attacks and I find that they don't go hand-in-hand as often as people would like to believe.

I get that way sometimes, too. I don't really care for talking with strangers, and I seem to get off track a lot when I do. I also can't stand to be crowded. For instance, one time I went to a theater and got stuck between two of my bigger friends, and I lasted all of about 10 minutes and watched the rest of the movie from the hallway. I don't know how severe that would be considered.

agreed. i see a therapist to help with social panic attacks. medication is the last option. but it happens. no one should want to feel medicated. but sometimes it keeps you grounded for a little while.

but really. if its as bad as you say. seek professional help. not OT. and what the hell is with all the work out as advice.

I've been active and athletic all my life,work out 4-6 days every week,and I'm fine with my self-image; yet I still get uncomfortable around lots of people most of the time.So it's not just problems with self-image.

well, I used to be like that. I was like 5'5, 90 lbs. Now I'm 6' ft, 150 lbs, and pretty ripped. I used to do baseball, but when I started wrestling my self image got better. I went from skinny w/ lots of acne, to ripped w/ little acne. But now I get compliments on my body :D. So I would advise working out, it releases endorphines which will make you feel better to.

I worry about worrying after I get done worrying and start the process all over again. If something is really bothering you even though there's no reason to worry about it, just try to stop thinking about it. If it can harm you, try to fix the problem, then stop thinking about it.
