Hi Avoni, I'm sorry you are struggling. I have a very hard time leaving my house too, even if it is just going into the yard. Meds arn't bad, but it did take me about 2 years to find the right ones. Its a struggle and I also feel I have lost part of my self because of them. But I wanted to be safe around my family. Right now I am up to late. Your not ready for girls, you need to find some peace inside you, then someone will actually see YOU and not the "brain monster"

I know how you feel. I'm 21 and i spend most of my time at home inside. I'm always so paranoid about going out, especially now. And I dropped out of school for the same reason. No one realizes how much of a toll it can take on your life. But stay strong, I'm sure it'll get better eventually. 🙂 I'm always here if you need a friend.
