Scared of people...
Ok, 'mental health' isn't the right category, but I couldn't find anything close to my prob.
I'm terrified of human beings. Male and female. I only have around 5 close friends, no one else. Whenever it comes to ordering food, I panic, start crying and refuse to call the place to ask for delivery - even though it's on the phone! I make my friend pay for the shopping I do (i give her the money, of course) because I'm just scared to do it myself. Everytime I'm at the mall and I get lost (i get lost all the time...=() I start crying and shaking because of the crowd around me.
I live in a pretty safe and quiet country (the only war we've had was between the bedouins and camels) and I should have nothing to worry about but my case is getting really bad. Because of my fear, I'm not driving, I'm not meeting new people and going to university every day and sitting in the classroom with all those people is just so stressful...
I'll be 18 next week. I'm in deperate need of help here...am I losing it?
Note: I was kinda kidnapped when I was a child. But that was years ago, I can't even remember what happened. Could that thought still be haunting me?
How can I get over this?...
Thanks.

HEY, i am really sorry about that, it must be really hard. and this is going to sound corney and wierd, but its true. the reason you are so scared is probly because of your past. and if you dont believe int his, thats ok, but it is the total truth. I dont mean your past past, i mean like past lives. you were very likly not a person in one of them, maby a mouse, or a squal=rl or some thing, and since those animals are afraid of people, the trait stuck with you in this life. I am afraid of night time. i wont freak you out anymore, but it is really hard for me at nigh. so i went for help and the person told me the reason for that was because in a past life, something must of happend at night that i dont remember, but never forgot, and another one of my friends has a dizzyness problem, and it is because in a past life of hers, her head hit a rock and she is still affected from the hit. so i hope everythign turns out for you and maby you can work up the curage to go to s syciatrist or something like that, because it will help you.

Sounds like you've got panic attacks and/or a social phobia, ive had a very similar thing for most my life and only the last couple of years ive really started to get past it and started doing more things with my life,
some things that have helped me out alot are zen meditation (to calm me and help me be more in the moment), cognative behavioral therapy (to help me see my thought and behavior patterns and change them),
EFT [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) (to help disconnect negative emotional feelings from my memories)
and Panic Away (search in google)(to get rid of panic attacks for good).
Definitely check EFT, if it works for you it will work almost instantly.

you are suffering from severe panic disorder, i have had it for years, and it does stem from a trauma in your life as i have known many hard times, seek counseling honey...

I think the kidnapping has a lot to do with this phobia/fear. I don't think you're "losing it", but I think its that you feel scared and cannot trust people because of that horrible incident(I'm so sorry that happened to you). I believe what you need to do is seek help from a therapist, hopefully this is one person you can overcome your fear for. Take your mom or close friend or relative to the therapist with you because you are mst likely to be scared of this new person and situation. Help yourself by seeking help. Good luck to you and work on your emotions from your past that are affecting you now.

I think that the kidnapping could still be haunting you. The best thing to do is to maybe see a therapist. Have one of your close friends to go with you so that you won't get so scared.
I would go to a therapist my regular doctor recommended.
Just don't let fear control you. You can control your fear. ^.^

You need to see a doctor about your problem. It could very well be you remember being "kinda" kidnapped unconsciously.
Just go to your regular doctor and get a referral to someone who can help you. Don't let this fear take over your life. Do something about it now. This isn't something I think you can fix on your own. :)
