I have really bad social anxiety and overthink all the time

...See more sometimes I feel really lonely cause of my anxiety. I have awful social anxiety and often times feel like whatever is going to come out of my mouth is stupid, so I just don’t say anything. Then afterwards I call myself stupid for not saying anything. However, if I do build up the courage to say anything I just overthink a lot afterwards and think abt what I could have said differenttly or oh I was so stupid for saying that. It’s like a lose lose situation. And I’m really shy too so that doesn’t help. And it’s not like k don’t like being around ppl because I’d rather hang out with others than be alone but my anxiety really holds me back and it’s so annoying. Idk how to gain more confidence in myself. I really wish I was more outgoing and talkative so that I would be able to make friends easier. But then when I start to open up to ppl that I start to get close to then I always think I’m being annoying and that I’m talking too much, when in reality they probably don’t really think I’m annoying. It just so confusing, idk if that made any sense but does anyone have any advice?

...See more I am very stressed over this kid. I’ve been texting them and I have seen them in person before but they goto a different school so we don’t see each other at all really other than sporting events cause we both do track and xc. But anyways some days they are texting me and they seem really interested and some days they dont seem to care at all. They always apologize if the don’t text back for a long time but that’s like a lot. The one time they didn’t message back for 24 hrs, but then was like oh sry how was ur day. So they apologized and started a new conversation. Why start a new converstaion if they aren’t interested? But I feel like I’m overthinking this too much and it’s becoming a problem and it’s so annoying cause its all I can ever think about. It gives me really bad anxiety just thinking abt it. Any advice?
