Hey there.

So you venture outside but you dont feel ok around people?

[Luten1 in reply to Tiggerakafidgity]

That is the short way to explain it. The anxiety overtakes me. I'm not sure what to say etc

[Tiggerakafidgity in reply to Luten1]

So I guess you need to look inside your self.

Write down about you positive parts about you

And opposite write down the negative parts about you.

That’s gonna bring the anxiety right to the top that’s for sure.

Oh and there is no right or wrong answer and there is no time limit ok.

Society says oooo you’ve to answer a question in like 3 seconds.if you can’t answer the question in the appropriate time.just say not sure or I’ll get back to you on that.

I'm a full time single father of a 12 year old and have major depression. I have started going to a support group for people with depressing and bipolar and it has helped a lot. Since the mother of my daughter is not in her life, it made going out socially hard so now I feel isolated. I'm trying to break through this depression. Now that the weather is getting nicer that has been helping as has exercising.
