It's all in your mind. There is no real problem, just the one you imagine exists.
At the end of your paragraph, you state that "you know you're being pathetic". Well, what if you decide that you aren't being pathetic? Why not just do that?
The problem is within your psyche and so is the solution. Instead of telling yourself you have a social anxiety, tell yourself that you don't. Focus on that. Make it your new mindset. You probably have more to say about who you are than you may currently realize. |

Hi.
I also play games solo; I'm a pretty solitary person, and I enjoy it that way. Even though I play solo., the reason I enjoy MMOs is the multiplayer aspect. The competition, risk, etc. Just because a person doesn't want to team up with a bunch of people and constantly be socializing doesn't mean an MMO isn't right for them.
If you like playing solo., then play solo. |

I wouldn't say I have social *anxiety*, but I am rather averse to large groups. First, I often don't have anything I'd consider interesting to say, and second by the time I do have something I'm never able to get into the conversation to say it. (I think I think slowly, so even if I have a response right away somebody else is already halfway through their own response by the time I'm ready to speak.) So for RL gatherings of large groups, I'd rather just stay away. It's not anxiety, it's that I find them rather uninteresting/unrewarding for me.
Despite this though, I've been playing EVE for over a year now with a large-ish group, and have been really enjoying it. Mostly I listen on comms and rarely speak, and when I do have something to say I use the asynchronous nature of text chat to offer my comment that way. I can think about and type and edit my response while others are talking or typing, then submit it when I'm ready. If I'm being addressed directly though, it's easy enough to respond via voice.
I've even been FC a few times. That doesn't involve a lot of back-and-forth chitchat which I'm bad at. (Which isn't to say that I'm a *good* FC, just that I *can* do it, and even enjoy it. :) )
The group I play with, by the way, I found through semi-random chance. I picked CAS as my starter corp during account creation, and it turns out there are a lot of active veterans in CAS who like to help out newbies like I was. They're cool with me interacting as much or as little as I want. I was starting to get bored with EVE prior to learning of this group, and would have quit without them. EVE is the only MMO I've ever tried out. All my other gaming had been single-player games.
Anyway, I have no idea what form your social anxiety takes, or whether emulating my usage of text chat to get around my issues can help you any, but hopefully you can figure things out. Sorry I don't have better advice on how to find an accepting group to play with - I just lucked in to it. |

You're entitled to your opinion, I'm entitled to mine. I believe having anxiety about talking to people is only as real a problem as each person chooses to make it. There isn't any external tormentor... well, unless you count the entire human race. And the reference to some other person who endures a similar struggle being some kind of authority doesn't really make sense to me. It's an internal struggle. You can talk to other people about it, sure, but it isn't getting resolved until you, the person dealing with it, decides it's getting resolved. Period. It can be a long journey ... or it can be a short one ... depending on how much a person wants to victimize themselves over this sort of thing. Myself, I think it's better not to feed into the mentally of "what's wrong with me, why do I feel this way, I need help". But it's up to each person to decide for themselves how long they want to live in that place.
But anyway, that's my opinion based on my own experiences, just as I'm sure you have yours. |

And now so I don't feel like a complete ass for deraling a thread; OP, add me as a contact. I am NOT a social person and really don't even know how to act around a group of people but in order to really enjoy EvE you NEED friends. I'm happy to help as best I can... one socially awkward gamer to another.
I did not mean to offend anyone but that may be inevitable when having frank discussions on these sorts of subjects. People on average don't seem comfortable with the idea that they may actually be the solution to their own anxiety. While we can't help how we feel initially, we can help what we do about it. |

Op rather specifically used the term disorder implying a non-trivial diagnosed condition As aposed to "feeling a bit anxious" implying what you picked up on.
I'm no expert on any of the anxiety disorders (yes there are a few) but I do know someone who's been actively curating a site specifically for dealing with one in an online community environment, what the op asked about, hence the link.
I know you meant well but you put your foot in it there mate.
Anyway let's not have a raging argument here.

It's a rather touchy subject. People have these ideas of what is and isn't a normal mind. If a thought pattern skews far enough from what's the established norm then it's labelled a "disorder" or "disability". But is it always? I mean, is it always a clinical problem or is it sometimes merely a psychological idiosyncrasy? And where exactly is the line between the two? But perhaps my wording it the way I did gave the impression that I was trivializing their struggle, which wasn't my intention. |

It's an interesting question I've had discussions about with close friends before, and your wording, as mentioned, was a bit clumsy. However, this isn't really the place for that discussion. OP was asking about how to deal with playing EVE as someone with such a disorder/problem/idiosyncrasy; whatever you want to call it. We only know what was implied, and that's fine, these aren't easy things to talk about, especially with random fuckwits like us over the internet .
To the OP, I'd like to again encourage you to give EVE, including the social interaction within, a shot. Remember also that the forums are a platform for discussion and debate, as such they can and will often turn into a right mess. As Ralph says (may be misquoting here) "the forums have been effectively weaponized". We sometimes seem to argue simply for the sake of arguing, verbal sparring is sometimes just plain fun, even when it's not productive. You probably realize this, I just thought a little reminder that the internet and the hostility therein aren't necessarily representative of the whole.
There is a place for you in the EVE community, I do hope you decide to stay.

Well this is EVE. Social anxiety in EVE is treated like this:
Option A : Find a quiet spot to shoot some very cute but otherwise harmless rotating rocks. aka mining
Option B : Find a quiet spot to shoot some very cute but otherwise boring npc "red crosses" . aka missioning
Option C : Find someone else shooting rocks, or npcs, or someone in general and SHOOT his FACE off. Then very politely shout" This is MY system!..MINE!"
Choosing option C will effectively let people know that you are serious about your social anxiety and they may leave you alone. On the other hand there are people who do this on a daily basis, for similar reasons and may choose to join forces with you during your crusade. Then you end up in a corporation called Social Anxiety and you shoot stuff and faces together.

I have removed some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. Please people, keep it on topic and above all civil!
The Rules: 2. Be respectful toward others at all times.
The purpose of the EVE Online forums is to provide a platform for exchange of ideas, and a venue for the discussion of EVE Online. Occasionally there will be conflicts that arise when people voice opinions. Forum users are expected to be courteous when disagreeing with others.
4. Personal attacks are prohibited.
Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.
5. Trolling is prohibited.
Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.
27. Off-topic posting is prohibited.
Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued to the off-topic poster.
Thread reopened.

I don't have social anxiety per se but I think I have physical anxiety.. it is possible for me to injure or bruise myself without me realizing it all, so if I don't pay attention, my quality of life might go down pretty quickly. Over the years I've adopted a lot of routine that other people might perceive as being tedious and annoying (for example I like to run a visual check of my extremities every 15-20 minutes I'm awake) but I feel that what other people think may not be so important.. and it's more important for me to live healthy.
I feel that I can get along with others quite easily, so when you talk about your social anxiety I might not fully be able to empathize with how you feel in your head. However, I think I can understand what it feels like to be different and separated, to feel isolated even when you are inside a big group of people.
Corporations are large groups of people, and in any large group you will have bad apples who might ruin an otherwise good social experience. I think the best way to deal with isolation and anxiety is having a friend. I don't mean a large group of friends but a select few, maybe even just one friend, who understand you and will not judge you.

There's socialising, and then there's socialising.
What you could try, at first, is one of the NPSI roams. Or hang out in one of the 'chat' channels in game. There are often regional ones, or ones like Eve Radio.
That gives you a low impact social group, that you can opt out of, without any real impact (thus, low guilt for doing so.)
A degree of social anxiety isn't uncommon in this kind of game. It's all about managing it 
It's not about Eve, but it may be of use/interest. http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/21ysgf/helpdiscussion_should_i_just_give_up_on_this_game/
https://www.reddit.com/r/socialanxiety/comments/2reero/how_do_you_make_friends_in_an_mmo/
Edit:
I /loathe/ having people depending on me, and having to depend on other people. So, in my game play, I tend to go solo. (Yes, I know this sounds weird, coming from someone who put himself forward to the CSM position. But I /could/ walk away from it. knowing I can, means I don't have to.)

OP: You might like to try your hand at Solo PvP. No voice comms needed. You dont need to join a corp. But loads of text chat.
You have no doubt heard the advise: "Just get into low sec, and start losing Rifters/Atrons/whatever.
Offer a 'GF' when you inevitably lose at first, and you win invariably have a brief and friendly conversation about the fight with your opponent.
Before long you will start to make some friends and acquaintances, and will start to get regular 'o/' when you enter a system.
Very light and comfortable social interaction.
And don't apologize bro. Lots of us are more 'Boba Fett' than 'Han solo'.
