I have 20 years old and I have social phobia. I want a treatment but without drugs or with a psychologist. Do you know a site or can you give me an advice ?
People with social phobia only faces difficulty in meeting/interacting with new people and speaking in front of other people(strangers).
To treat this issue, you should go to the root of the problem above.
Start by meeting people online, take an activity class like yoga or tennis and go out together with your family and their friends. You need to be patience and have the guts to face and try new things. Do it step by step only you can help yourself.
I think you should find the root cause of your social phobia first and then the treatment can be found, I don’t think drugs really helps anyone with social phobia, it just covers the symptoms, but doesn’t deal with the root cause of it all, Fear, Social Phobia is all in the mind….how we think and perceive things, how you perceive situations, other people, yourself…..Pray to God to help you, to being positive people into your life and for a more positive feeling about yourself that you will automatically do the things you never could do before….Find the root cause of it first though……a certain event, experience and then you can more readily deal with it. Personally I have had to deal with this….I have found that the problem is also spiritual, The Bible actually talks about it, For me I have found the more I trust God and believe Who He says I am, and the less I worry about what other people think of me, my social phobia lessens, it’s a lot better than what it used to be and it keeps getting better, Thank God….
Without drugs? darn, i was going to recommend alcohol, Haha.
Keep pushing yourself to speak to new people. go travelling. That really helped me come out of my shell, going to a different country. Act confident and eventually you’ll feel confident.
