I quiver violently
Too many people
Take it easy
Walk slowly
Control yourself
Control the impulse
I'm sure they notice
My uncertainty
They stare into
My soul
The agony
That lies within
The anxiety
Beneath my skin
It runs through
My scarlet veins
Like poison
Infecting me
Cell by cell
Vein by vein
Killing my sanity
Going insane
They stare
As I walk through
This hell
Step by step
Demons in disguise
Ready to pounce
Grab hold of my soul
Strangle me
Intimidate me
Until I collapse
Drop to my knees
Humiliate me
I need pills
Self medication
Some way to
Cope with this
Terrible disorder
Social Phobia...

social anxiety
Painfully shy they call me
and they are right
it is painful
but something about the label
doesn't feel right
I have a voice but I. Can. Not. Speak.
Words stuck in my throat,
tunnel vision kicks in and I feel weak
anxiety manifests in any social situation
lightheadedness, dizziness, heart palpitations
adrenaline rush, tremors, hyperventilation
d I s c o n n e c t e d n e s s
I'm sick of dealing with this
I have a lot to say
but my verbosity remains internal
I pray they stay away
but when they do, it cuts like shrapnel
because I'm the most social anti-social
you'll ever meet
don't talk to me, don't talk to me;

social anxiety.
i'm sorry,
but we can't talk.
not now, not ever.
because i may say
something i'll
regret later.
because i may make
you feel very
uncomfortable.
because i may just
stop breathing for
the rest of the day.
because i may upset
you and you'll run
away forever.
i hope you understand
i'm only doing this
for your own good.
it's not really for me.
i can just feel it.
and it's not good.
my throat tenses up.
my head throbs around.
my fingertips stop feeling.
i'll stop wishing i were
here and start wishing
i were in the ground.
six and a half feet under
would be much better
than speaking out loud.
silence escapes my lips

Dear self harm,
Dear self harm,
I am writing to thank you for your help over the past few years. You have helped me through a lot of my problems throughout my life. But I'm not sure if I can go on seeing you.
We met that one night a few years back in my bedroom. It was surprising how we just clicked like that. We're perfect for eachother. Whenever I was angry, you could always calm me down. Whenever I was upset, you'd replace my tears. Whenever I needed you, you were always there. You are my best friend. You are my hero. You are my saviour.
But then our relationship started going badly. I began to start using you. I insisted on you being there even whe

I have social anxiety and also think that school is a never-ending hell loop of relief and then hell again. I tend to isolate myself, besides my one true friend. I relate so much, but I'm too awkward to tell anyone about my SA... I need help but I don't want people to judge me even more than I think they do. I feel like no one understands.
