getting a job

...See more I really want my first job so i sent out a lot of applications, but whenever someone replied or offered me a job i'd freak out and say no. Someone asked if I still want a job today so I think they're going to offer me one but I feel like i'm going to stress and say no again. I always freeze up and try to get out of it as fast as possible when they reply. I don't have much motivation for it because i'm only 14 almost 15 but I need the work experience.

How do I tell anyone

...See more I've had social anxiety for 3 years but I don't want anyone to know in case they treat me differently or think i'm a burden, so I lie a lot and fake smiles and laughing all the time because I don't want to bring someone down. I don't go to some things I get invited too because i'm too scared and my friends get mad at me for it. I feel like I can't tell my mum because she has depression and I don't want her to worry about me. Does anyone know how to tell someone about this, because I worry they won't stick around because i'm too much to take. Even if i've been there for them. I have a friend who, when we went to the same school, got angry really easily and would kick me or swear at me and runs away from school and the police would have to come find her. I stayed her friend through all of that and she's much better now but I'm too scared to tell her about the anxiety because i've always had to look after her and try to be a really easy friend to have, so she doesn't know how to look after someone else.
