I think that there should be a Social Anxiety Disorder(social phobia) section in the mental illness area because I have it and I'd like to talk to people who actually have my problem and get some help. Tell me what you think.

Hmm... Funny, a thread was recently made about this disorder: http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/showthread.php?t=33695.

I'm not sure how often people are actually diagnosed with this. On top of that, I'm not sure how many topics could actually be made about it. That kind of shoots down the idea of a forum devoted to it. :?

We have a forum for any miscellaneous mental disorders :arrow: Mental Illnesses (http://www.virtualteen.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=32).

yep, ben is right. for new forums to be created, even sub-forums, there needs to be a demand for it. although there is no doubt that this is an important topic and illness, i doubt there would be the demand for it to have its own forum.
