It's been a tough week across the globe. Share your thoughts in our new 2008 Financial Crisis support group.

I suffer from social anxiety and noticed there wasn't any group that specifically addresses this disorder so I've started my own. Social Anxiety is a term used to describe an experience of anxiety (emotional discomfort, fear, apprehension or worry) regarding social situations and being negatively evaluated by other people. So join us, you don't have to feel alone anymore.
