My social anxiety introduction
Warm greetings to everyone who reads this blog, my name is Vladimir, and Im the new owner of shyandquiet.com. I will be blogging about my own social anxiety experiences from now on. Drew has decided that he will dedicate more of his time blogging about other things, now that he is recovering from social anxiety, and so he passed this blog on to me.
Ive had social anxiety for ten years, since I came to United States from Russia. The cause of my social anxiety was the new language - I was unable to express myself the way I would in my native language so I became isolated from the rest of people and never really became adapted to the new environment. To this very day, I still think there is something terribly wrong with the way I speak, despite a lot of people telling me that my voice sounds just fine. My social anxiety has diminished a lot since I started a healthier life about two and a half months ago and Im on my way to recovery. It will be a pleasure sharing and blogging about my social anxiety with the rest of the world and hopefully I will be able to give hope and inspire anyone who thinks they cant overcome social anxiety.
I have also started video blogging about my social anxiety on youtube.com and you can check out my videos at http://www.youtube.com/user/VladimirRussianDude
Hi Vladimir,
Good luck with the blog and videos, I hope expressing your thoughts in this way helps you along your road to recovery. I didn’t think there was anything wrong with your voice from watching the videos, after all what’s normal?

Hi Vladimir, I just want to say that I think your blog is very nice and that I also have social anxiety, how we deal with it is very painful but we deal with it in our own way. If you would like, you can check out my blog, I’m just starting to write a blog so check it out and give me your feed back ok.
