A Forum for "SAD" People

PASSWORD NOW REQUIRED - Because of a recent problem with the a breach of confidentiality of forum posts by the Google search engine, you must now enter the password, "sad", when prompted, in order to post to this forum.

This forum is a way for those who may suffer from Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD), and their families and friends, to offer each other support.  SAD (also known as Social Phobia) is still a relatively newly recognized disorder, and as such, many professionals who treat other phobias & anxieties aren't fully qualified to treat SAD.  For many, just knowing that what they have been experiencing sometimes for years actually has a name is a breakthrough to hope and help.

Please note that you are never required to include your name or email address in your post.  However, many times there are those who do include an email address hoping to establish a more personal exchange with others, and that is fully encouraged.

(As this is a free forum, I have no control over the ads that are run here, and unfortunately many of these ads offer 'fixes' for anxiety problems that one should be wary of.  Please research any of these products or services thoroughly before purchasing.)

Thank you for visiting, and I hope you will find some comfort and camaraderie here.

Sincerely,

"Echo" ~ Forum Manager
