Ever since I was put on trazadone I sleep like a baby. Good 8 hours of sleep, (depending on work and school schedule). My roomate says I very rarely snore.
I'm assuming you're going down the sleep apnea route here? |

Yep. Poor sleep does bad things to da brain. Good to hear.

I probably have some kind of social anxiety. I don't like crowds, I don't like meeting people, I even have a hard time going out with a lot of my friends. I don't want to deal with customers; just give me a pair of headphones and a corner of the office and let me process paperwork all day and I'll be fine. I hate being recognized or even noticed, I will never ever dance in public, and at parties I tend to stand in the corner. The biggest perpetual hurdle I have with my schoolwork is when they put us in groups with strangers and we all grade each others' work. People suggest I become a teacher or a professor, but I really have little interest in getting in front of a room full of people and have them all. watching. me. I hate that.
I also don't care if I have a social anxiety. I have a perfectly good life, doing what I like alone or with the few people I love, without feeling the burning need to make new friends. |

Talking in front of a large group of people, no problem.
I'm very comfortable in leadership positions when I know everyone well, or when everyone is standing around with their hands in their pockets waiting for someone to step forward. Throw me into a room full of strangers in a mixer situation and I can't wait to leave. Work in progress. |

I know this is really painful for some people. We have all seen people who seemed ordinary completely meltdown when confronted in a group or needing to give a public speech. I am as comfortable talking to 100 people as I am 1. That's a blessing.

The odd thing for me is that I'm actually more comfortable in front of a large group of people, as opposed to being around 4-5 friends or peers. Even family members at this point.

I'd definitely recommend staying off the weed. It may seem to help, but I suspect it's actually making your problem much worse.

Similar to how people handicap them selves to alcohol in social situations. People in general need to learn to deal with a problem head on and not use crutches.

I'm the same way. I'd rather give a presentation to a group of 300 strangers than a small group that contains people I know. I figure that's because if the presentation goes poorly I would feel more guilty doing a Carrie and burning the room down if it contains people I know.
