Am I really giving myself a chance?

So for the past few months I've been trying to get myself out of a negative headspace and tried to put more focus on an effort for things I can control as opposed to spiraling over things I can't and for a while I thought it was working I was somewhat getting over my social anxiety and managed overcoming a previous test which now has me on track to get my learners permit but then I suprisingly got 2 interviews where the first went well but it wasn't something I could see myself managing the second basically told me they'd reschedule and the third more or less didn't even consider me for one, so now I'm wondering if I've even made any actual progress when I'm still stuck at square one like am i missing something or what?

@Lonewolf360

You made progress. in life it is not one and done it is continuous, there will be hurdles that make you feel like you are at the beginning again.   interviews also are difficult for many people.

I guess that's one way to look at it, I think my anxiety and self doubt just gets the better of me when I least expect or generally try to improve

@Lonewolf360 you miss acceptance.. you did a graet job even if it was 1%. i don't know why but i'm proud.. it's just the beginning of a journey. there are fails and wins.. so don't feel bad about it. try. not hard. just in the comfortable amount that you can handle.

Thanks I'll try to take this into account more in the future because 1% is better than nothing I suppose

@Lonewolf360 it is... try doing it 100 time and you reach 100% isn't? i ain't a doctor I don't know what are you going  through fully... so I'm sorry if i made any distress.

No no your good because I genuinely think that's something I'm missing i can't get where I want reasonably at 100% I got to take it one step at a time even if they are painful
