Nah. I don't think there's really any good way to describe it aside from just saying the next time you pick up a phone to call some one, s econd guess yourself about 15 times before having to talk yourself into getting over your social anxieties. Same with the next time you walk outside of your door and go some place. Every step of the way imagine that everyone is looking at you, looking at your flaws, seeing that you're overweight and judging you, or those people over in the corner are laughing at your buck teeth or something that you're self-concious about. Order something, and if the person doesn't hear you correctly and asks "What did you say?" think that it's a flaw of your own that you aren't any good at talking. Sit there and second guess everything you do and bring yourself down as much as possible. Then the next day don't do it. Live normally and happily and not have all those self-doubts you know in your head you shouldn't have, and that's what Zoloft is to me.
Quite honestly though, you never think you need help until you actually get it in some way and your life is so much for the better because of it. Otherwise it's just judgement with no real personal experience to base it on.
