Possible social anxiety and parents won't believe me? - December 20th 2014, 03:39 AM

I think I might have social anxiety or some sort of anxiety problem. I am very paranoid about the fact of people not liking me. I can be walking down the hallways at school, and if people happen to laugh while walking by me, I automatically assume they are making fun of me. It's like I think everyone is out to get me. I know it is irrational but I am very insecure and I can't seem to get it out of my mind that everyone secretly dislikes me. I hate talking to new people because I automatically assume they dislike me. It has gotten significantly worse since I moved to a new state, and it is terrible. I told my parents and they refuse to believe me, and they tell me to get over it. They don't understand how crippling it is.

Do I have social anxiety? What do I do?
