I created the Beating Social Anxiety Together Group for people like me who have social anxiety. I have had social anxiety for 12 years now. I have tried CBT therapy, Hypnosis, Self Help Groups and Medication, but I have still not been able to get over my social anxiety. I felt that the groups that I visited were of no help to me because many of the people within the groups did not experience social anxiety the way that I did. The groups that I visited were very large groups and with me having se …

… For example: although my anxiety has not completely dissapeared, I have learned not to be completely ruled by it anymore. Mervyn has also helped me to look at my values (and also goals) in my life. I feel very empowered and I will keep on doing ACT, I guess for the rest of my life. It is just amazing! ACT is not a therapy, It's a life journey. " A ".....then I came across ACT and on the night of the first session my anxiety levels came down significantly, so much so that I was able to drink fo …

… This reduces their fear and anxiety. Soldiers use similar tactics when preparing to attack, often shouting at the top of their voices to ‘psych themselves up’. This bodily expression of courage creates matching emotions in the mind." Excerpt from Dr Kataria's book 'Laugh for No Reason'

I have started this group (even though I know there are quite a few already out there) due to the fact that distance is a problem for me. Most of these meet ups will be situated in the East of London and Central London areas. I am currently going through a depression for a few reasons and it has caused me to become insecure at times, socially anxious and shy. I find it hard to even look into peoples faces at times. Not good! This group is for females in the same boat, who like myself have a lot …

This group's main focus is aimed on helping people who's personality disorders have caused them to be isolated from the general population. Personality disorders can have several bad implications but in my opinion the worst of these implications is when it causes one to live a life of solitude, whether it is due to extreme shyness or been unable to relate to other people. If professional help is what you seek then this group probably isn't for you, since the whole aim of this group is to get …
