Pozdrav svima, zanima me da li neko ima iskustva sa psihologom u poliklinici?

Od ranog detinjstva imam problem sa anksioznošću i poslednjih godina mi postaje sve teže da funkcionišem normalno sa tim. Pročitala sam razne knjige na tu temu, gledala videe, tražila savete na internetu ali nisam uspela sama da se rešim toga, postajalo je sve gore, pa sam mislila da je vreme da potražim stručnu pomoć.

Videla sam da ovde ima dosta negativnih iskustava sa poliklinikom, pa me zanima da li je neko ipak imao pozitivno iskustvo i da li vredi pokušati.

Takođe, ako ste išli negde drugde i imate preporuke (privatno ili neka druga opcija), značilo bi mi da podelite.

Hvala unapred🫶🏻

Hi everyone. I’ve been dealing with something for most of my life and I’m not sure if it’s serious enough to seek professional help.

Since early childhood, I’ve had this issue in social situations (especially in groups, but sometimes even 1-on-1). My mind goes completely blank. I can’t think of anything to say, I struggle to follow conversations, and when I try to speak it comes out rushed, short, or doesn’t make much sense.

It’s not that I’m overthinking or worried about what people think, I literally have no thoughts in those moments.

I also sometimes experience physical symptoms like shaking, feeling like I can’t breathe properly, and in some situations I’ve even started crying and had to leave.

What confuses me is that this can happen even with people I’ve known for a long time. After the interaction ends, everything comes back to me — I suddenly remember things I could have said, topics, etc.

As I’m getting older, this is starting to affect my life more and more. After uncomfortable situations, I sometimes isolate myself and don’t leave my apartment for days because I feel so bad.

I’ve been trying to work on this for years. I’ve read a lot of books, watched videos, and tried to push myself into social situations, but nothing really changes this “blank mind” state when it happens.

Do you think this is something worth seeing a psychologist for, or is it something I should keep trying to work on by myself?
