Hi Sally, Well done for finding this site. Its a releif to find that this thing has a name! Your story described exactly how I was, bar mine started when I was 8/9 ish. As I became more self confidant in myself in genaral, I found that my AP reduced but only slightly. It wasnt untill I read messages on this board and attended a workshop back in Jan that my life changed. Have a good read through as many messages as you can on here, they are really re-assuring. And if you can get to the workshop in Manchester or wait till the next London one, it will be the best thing you will ever do! The good news is that you have found this support now and not in 40 years time. Keep us updated with anything. All the best, Mark
