I have social anxiety and feel that I’ve been passed over for many jobs because of my ASSUMED lack of self confidence. During interviews it’s difficult for me to maintain eye contact, focused, remain still (I fidget). What is my best bet for doing well during interviews?

I have a lot of anxiety about going to school everyday because I have social anxiety disorder and it’s very hard to communicate with people and I get nervous that the teacher will call on me and I will get something wrong or say something too quiet. Stuff like that embarrasses me because I’m more shy. I don’t have a lot of friends because I’m not that outgoing and it depresses me. I also have no self confidence whatsoever. Any advice?

I have been suffering from Bipolar depression for several years now…somewhere around 10 years. The doctor has put me on several different medications that caused me more issues (weight gain, fatigue and other stuff like that) that I could not handle. I have not been on medicine since I had my son 2 years ago. Things seem to be getting worse lately with all the stress that has been added since my wedding in May. I have an appointment with my doctor today to try to get something to help me. It has gotten to the boilling point where I can see my condition hurting my family. Anyone have any suggestions on what medications worked good for you or someone you know? Or any other comments for me…please don’t be negative..that is not going to help me at all..it will only make it worse.
I agree with all of you. I appreciate soo much your suggestions or words of support for me. It helps.
Bill – you are right, I am lacking self-confidence but I have had that problem all of my life. It’s not something I can just snap out of by myself. I almost wonder if at times I need people around me that feel like I do so that we can support each other…I am too embarrased most the time to tell anyone about my problems.
