Bump. Does anyone have any ideas on how to cure this aside from exposure therapy? Already tried that and it didn't work jfl
 
Industrial strength meditation practice. You need to be able to get to 4th Jhana easly. Once you can maintain exclusive attention on one sensation, without any dullness, effortlessly, for 2h at the time, your social anxiety will be gone.

Stage 8 is a minimum

Can you tell me more about this? How long will it take to get there?
 
Exposure therapy is your best bet. It's gonna suck, but you don't wanna rot forever.

Even going to prison for 5 years is better than living your whole life afraid of human interaction.

THE RATE OF PROGRESS THROUGH THE TEN STAGES
Some books give the impression that it takes many, many years or even decades
to become an adept meditator. This simply isn’t true! For householders who
practice properly, it’s possible to master the Ten Stages within a few months or
years. What you need is a regular daily sitting practice of one to two hours per
day
It varies greatly tbh, some talented people can get there in a month, and for some it will take years. Mainly people get stuck at stage 2 or 5, other that that it should be somewhat dose-dependent linear progress. Everything explained in more detail is in The Mind Illuminated book which became free now, just google the mind illuminated pdf

See if you can get propranolol prescribed. It is very good at blocking the physical feeling of anxiety. For me at least it also helps social anxiety

Pretty sure if u take too much u could fuck up your heart forever and be stuck with other blood pressure pills
 
what would this do bro
You'd become so spiritually transcended. All of your opinions of life might change. It has cured many people's social anxiety however it does nothing long term to a lot of people as well. But it comes with risks like schizophrenia, ptsd.

Yeah id never do 1000ug. 240 with weed was my max with two friends. We went insane for 1 hour lucky nothing bad happened. I forgot my name and kept asking him if I was retarted. He was autistically re-arranging random items in his room

I also left my body and became some sort of god and felt like I entered about 20 new dimensions

exposure therapy. i can almost guarantee you did it wrong, didn't do it for long enough, or quit because it was too hard. it's like people who have "tried exercise" for their depression by going on like 3 runs in a month.

that said, it's hard as fuck to do, maybe one of the hardest things to force yourself to do in life. i have no problem meditating every day, cold showers, quitting porn, quitting cigs, quitting opioids, exercising, fasting, cold showers. i've done it all, every day for months, years, permanently. doesn't even compare to exposure therapy, which i've not done successfully.

i've done assloads of psychedelics, including enough to go insane and have insane spiritual experiences and I still have severe social anxiety.

Yeah, it's very obvious which types of persons can handle and benefit from psychedelics. Usually low iq people can't while high iq people can.
