Suffering from depression and anxiety. Very low self esteem
I've been suffering from depression and anxiety for about 8 yrs. Everytime i take a step outside i immediately want to go back in because i feel my face is too big or someone is going to laugh the way i look. I dont like being around alot of people so i avoid clubs and group outings. Im somtimes afraid to lookin the mirror cause i might be a bit more uglier than i was yesterday. Sounds weird but its the truth. I avoid trying to meet new people and constantly think of how do they perceive me. Am i good enough to hold a conversation with or am i just some weirdo who never will fit in. I overthink alot about everything. Unnecessary thing such as how many carlories i ate or what clothes should i put on. I need help seriously.
@Sweetpie30 Hey, I understand, actually. I have friends who I believe hate me because I have anxiety attacks and because I don't like being around people. Every anxiety attack comes when they Don't text me back after 5 minutes, when I start complimenting people, I can't breathe and I almost pass out because I believe that I was mean. It's destroying everything. But, for you I think that just understanding yourself is the key. People believe that like being around everyone is the expectation, but it's not. You need to breathe, because sometimes it helps. Sorry if I was like intruding or anything, but I wanted to help. I bet that what happens now is preparing you for acceptance in the future.
@Sweetpie30 You are so welcome! And thank you too! I hope that you feel better💖
