So what do you need to fix the problem? Here's what I had to fix me:
A wonderful doctor who was very sympathetic
Seroxat (known as Paxil in the US)
Lilith (Who suggested I might have social anxiety and whipped me until I went to see a doc THANK YOU lil!
)
and Loulabelle who wasn't turned off by the thought of a potential boyfriend with what is to all intents and purposes is a mental illness.
What would I have if I didn’t make the changes??
Well I got made redundant from my job the day I started on Seroxat I’m sure a big contributing factor was the time I refused to work for a couple of days in an office a couple of hundred miles away from my comfortable office.
Living with my parents feeling safe and never going out spending all my money and time on computers so I could chat to people.
Generally being miserable!
What is my life like because I made the changes?
I’ve been through a couple of jobs got myself a great job after being more comfortable and confident in interviews (actually got offered 3).
I’ve been to Italy twice to appear in small movies!
I’ve moved out of my parents house to live with Lou 90 miles away from “home”
3years down the line and Lou n I are now married and went all the way to Bali to do it!!
