Any advice?

[Doggie6]

I have been struggling for years. These last few weeks have been real bad. I get very uncomfortable around people in general. I work at two different huge retail stores with hundreds of people in close contact. I been told I’m good looking but mess up every relationship because of Insecurities and anxiety. I have a very hard time focusing and have no real skills. I know a woman wants a secure and confident nan . I feel doomed. I feel like I no longer want to be in this world. I was thinking of checking myself into a mental hospital but only read bad things.

hey,

being here is a great start because there's so many people who understand and you feel less alone

also it's amazing that you work in a huge store even though you feel uncomfortable and anxious - that means you're fighting it

everyone has insecurities and anxieties - that does not make you less of a man, that makes you human

be confident in knowing that you are enough! and anyone would be lucky to know you

keep fighting and i promise this is only temporary and you will find someone who wants to share their life with you

reach out on here whenever and hope you have a good day tomorrow 😊

Thanks for the reply. It means more to me than I would’ve thought.I tried medication but I give up on them after a week. I start looking for Side affects.Anyway thank you again.

no worries, glad to help

if you were prescribed medication by the doctor then you should stay on it for at least 6 weeks because that's normally when the effects kick in

over time, most side effects subside

it's worth having a conversation with your doctor 😊

I suffer with the exact same thing! What I have began to do, and it really helps me, is pointing out one thing I love about myself everyday. Try it and see if it helps! 💖
