Social Anxiety: My Story Pt. 27B (SA & Suicide)

******THIS IS PART TWO******
GO HERE FOR PART ONE:

I promised all of you the next video would be about suicide. Here it is, but I’m warning you that it’s pretty open so if you don’t like hearing about *suicide* don’t watch this one. If you are curious, then hopefully something from this vid will resonate with you.
You guys have been incredible; thank you, thank you, thank you. It is an HONOR to be able to share this recovery from SA with a group of people who are so compassionate and encouraging at the same time!
*To those who wrote me and told me I should talk about this, thank you (because I was quite scared to)!

Actually the only reason I haven’t killed myslef is BECAUSE I’m a weakling. I don’t enjoy my life and I know for a fact that I never will. Every single day I wish I was dead because of my SA.
If I wasn’t such a coward I would have killed myself and ended my suffering but instead I just continue my miserable existance hoping that one day a bus will hit me or something.
It’s really quite pathetic actually.

That was really selfless of you to share that. Just really brave, and unquestionably helpful. Thanks.

this is my ultimate weakness i dont feel fear of anything rats,snakes,spiders or any other animals,mine is worst,i cant look directly at peoples eyes, i like to live nocturnal, i avoid public places, i choose only one friend, i am super shy on girls(good looking,not so good looking or ugly) specially old hags with attitude e;g 40+ yr old single teacher and i hesitate to post this comment on youtube!
suicide is the most stupid option,its normal to think bout it but do it & u will be a weakling

You’re quite brave for doing this. I’ve never been to the brink of suicide, but I have more respect now for those that do stand on the edge.

i feel the exact same way. that my life is worthless and no matter how hard i try i will always be mediocre. i will never be pretty enogh, smart enough, funny enough. it happens usually after a school week in which i suffered SAD and feel exremely lonely. i usually would sleep all afternoon and not talk to any of my family and i would cry a lot.

When i found out about social anxiety and that 13% of the population has it. I felt so relieved that I was not alone.

Man that made me …
Man that made me cry. That was deep dude. I know what it’s like since I’ve battled SAD for a while now. I hope I’ll be strong like you guys and conquer it.
If anyone wants to talk, message me on youtube.

I don’t know you …
I don’t know you personally but you seem like a genuine person. From my experience people that have gone through the things we have been through seem to be more genuine and down to earth. At least the ones that apply the “Golden Rule” towards others. We know how it feels so in turn we are compassionate towards others that are feeling that way. I think SAD is a blessing in disguise as long as it doesn’t control us or master us. To be able to live with it then conquer it will be amazing.

Excellent video. You speak so well about perfectionism and the burden of living up to expectations. Much of those expectations are our own, feeding our Fear of Failure. (Why did I capitalize that?!)

… I might make a call tomorrow to a youth counselling service I know of though. Seems like the logical place to start.

Thanks. This was …
Thanks. This was really helpful. I’m not sure if it’s part of the SA but, I just find it incredibly difficult to talk about things that are really bothering me. I’ve known by best friend (best friend I’ve ever had actually) for around one and 3 quarters of a year, and it’s only now that I can just about manage talking about personal stuff. I need help I suppose, but I just don’t know who to ask and feel as though something cripples me and I can’t…

great video! i have felt like suicide was the only option too:(

Great video, I …
Great video, I actually came across the same website when I was contemplating suicide and I must say it did help. I think the part about coping resources is really relevant to SA sufferers because we don’t generally have large supportive social networks and we are more likely to internalise our problems. Therapy has been really helpful in just unloading problems and thoughts.
