Hi my name's Melissa. I'm 21 years old and currently not studying or working because of a social phobia. I tried both, but I ended up getting panic attacks and quiting/getting fired. My favorite thing to do is play videogames, so I don't get a lot of exercise. My height is 168cm and I currently weigh 74kg. I'm cutting calories to reach my goal of 50kg. Just eating what I normally eat, just less sugar and smaller portions. My family and my fiance are very unsupportive of my decision to lose weight, but it doesn't discourage me. I would like some friends here though, just to feel like I'm not alone in this :)

PS. Sorry for the elaborate introduction, I'm just an elaborate person hehe

    Welcome to the boards. You'll find lots of support and encouragement here. I am sure you are aware that certain meds like Paxil are helpful for social phobia. Viibryd, although not specifically for social phobia, is an excellent antidepressant and made me much more social and talkative. I'll send you a friend request.

    Well my lowest weight was 55kg. That's when my mind was in a dark place and I stopped eating altogether for a while. I still didn't look the way I wanted to look, so now I'm trying to reach a lower weight while still eating. Hopefully my hips will disapear..

    You should really keep eating a little more. I've been through this myself and it brings a lot of health problems :(
