I'm a shy guy but i've been outgoing lately with co-workers and classmates but i dont think im all there at times. Like at work.. whens there parties about to happen.. i always get self-conscious of me messing up or embrassing myself at a party and my co workers will laugh at me cuz im the least sociable. Also i always constanly think about the people around me like if i mess up they will laugh at me and make fun and it has happened to me many times in life. My voice also changes from time to time from deep to high pitch.. its not consistent and people make fun of that. Also when i go meet family members that i barely see.. i barely can say a word out of my mouth and i t hink thats sad but i cant do anything abobut it. I'm too self-conscious of myself and think about others around me.. is this a problem? should i go see a doctor? i want to talk to my mother about this but more than likely she'll brush it off.. i would like to see a doctor and get some medication or something.. what you guys think

Sounds like it could be social anxiety/social phobia. If it is bothersome towards you, and affects your life in a negative way, definitely go. You can get some anti anxiety meds and feel much better. Good luck.

One important aspect of Social Anxiety Disorder is that it's severe enough that you even consider/do skip social activities simply out of fear of embarrassing yourself or having to interact with others. You could just be shy or have certain social phobias (maybe based on previous experiences or just specific things you're scared could happen in social environments).

It's hard for me to even get a job cause I don't know how to talk to people! If I feel like people are watching me I freeze up and don't know what to do! I don't know how to act around people and I'm always scared I might mess up and people will laugh! I want help too but I don't have the money to, if you have the money then I would get some help.

I'm not psychiatrist but I have had social anxiety disorder and it does sound like you've got it. I'd say yes, see a doctor.

We has similar problems. I used to think I had Social Anxiety Disorder as well. But, here's what you need to know, Social Anxiety Disorder is not just being shy, it's having serious diagnosable anxiety issues. Be careful before going to a doctor, some of the drugs that you might be put on are unpleasant. I'd rather by my shy self then some zombie on Zoloft.
