I don't know what's wrong with me
For the past 2 years I have barely left my house. I've been afraid to go around people and even walk in my neighborhood. It scares me to even going my porch as I don't want anyone looking or talking about me. And to top it off, I'm even more afraid and insecure because I have gained weight this past year and I can't get it off. I avoid talking with people on the phone so I won't have to lie cus I know I don't have anything fantastic going on in my life... I actually don't have anything at all going on in my life. I just can't go around people

I'm so sorry to hear that.
The insecurities and the fears have heightened for you and taken over.
It's hard when we compare ourselves to others and think we are not good enough.
Depression can take away so much, it can make us put on or lose weight, not take care of our appearance, our hygiene, making us more self confident but I promise you, it doesn't take away who you are at your core, or your value, you matter , never forget that 💜 💕
Thank you. It's good to hear something nice and genuine
@Amanda84 one of the angelic soul🥺
@scarletWest8397 even I feel the same as...
Hope things will get better~
I hope things will get better for you too. How long have you been feeling this way?
Try taking baby steps. You don't have to walk a mile. Just a few feet in the beginning. Every journey starts with the first step.
Thank you. I think I may have already started my baby steps by joining this app and hopefully i will began to gradually do more

Hi,
I am so sorry to hear that - I'm in the same position but for like the past three years. I get so anxious sometimes it feels like the world is ending- I am in therapy as of now and the good news is it doesnt last forever. This also is not tour fault and beating yourself up about it won't make you do things faster- actually the opposite.
We don't leave the house for multiple reason but the biggest one for all of them is you don't feel safe,your brain does not feel safe and you can not rush that the only way is to deal with that. I am more than happy to talk about it some more if you want to dm!
Hi. You are right... I don't feel safe leaving my home and being around people. I'm not fully sure on where to start so I can slowly make progress. Has therapy helped you with your struggles? Yes, I'd like to chat more, but I'm not sure how to DM you
