Spent my second NYE in a row completely alone. Fantastic.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_aAA9-edO3I This is a motivational speech that i listen to almost daily when im feeling anxious/sad/lonely. On some point you will hear about an african proverb that says "if there is no enemy within,the enemy outside can do us no harm";its basically a fight with ourselves,this anxiety,and its damn hard to come to peace with yourself and destroy your inner demons. Im suffering from this aswell and its dragging my life into shit,i know how youre feeling.

Like you,i also fear judgement from the people around,especially from strangers.Thats why my schedule in the last 2 years of highschool and now the first semester in college is go to school-come home-sleep-stay at the computer-sleep again(at night, i only sleep 2-3 hours and i have to catch up in the after- -noon.I lost any interest for going out. My new years resolution is to start hitting the gym and read some self improvement books because i have huge self esteem issues and along with my SA,its a very bad combination.Dont know if i will really be able to gather the nerves to go to the gym,because i will have to go alone and i dont know how comfortable will i feel,especially in the first month,cause i fear the new.

I have recently lost a very good friend and i dont even know why,he didnt tell me,he just blocked me on facebook without any word.My best friend fell in love and when shes with his gf,he doesnt say a WORD to anybody(including me),he just spends all his day with her,without letting anyone know whats been up to him lately.In the summer she will be moving with him,so i fear i will loose my best friend aswell because of the lack of contact. If that happens,i will truly be lonely and feel like shit.

The thing that i wanna do myself for self improvement is to start reading some books about this issue;i recomend you do the same.There are alot of good ones on amazon.Also,there are alot of youtube videos,like the speech i gave you,and alot more about this topic that can encourage you. You should try a therapist aswell,could be useful.Damn,i`ve been thinking about going to one myself for a few months now and i think i will go at some point because i kinda need it.. Best of luck to you mate and sorry for the eventual mistakes!

Let's talk You want to but you can't ! Do you feel like teachers understand your concerns as someone with SA? First job interview tomorrow. Advice? What's up with people posting about how they're cured? how do you "be yourself" if you don't even know who you are? mom gave me the talk once again about how i have no life, how i should stop doing things with her, basically find friends and live my life, but in the next breath she wonders why i'm so depressed all the time. How am I supposed to be a man and have SA? Do you feel conflicted between wanting to bring someone into your life but also being comfy in your own space? Is this being selfish? I don’t want to be alone, but I’m starting to hate being around other people. I want friends and close relationships, but at the same time I’d rather isolate myself and never have to worry about socializing at all. Going to the movies alone? Struggling uni receptionists drove me to a panic attack in front of several people tips for maintaining eye contact? What is the most absurd thing you have done due to social anxiety?
