Social phobia because i feel that can't trust anyone , how do you know if you can trust anyone? They tell me that isolating isn't good but I find it kinda hard to connect because having no connection with your parent it's harder to connect with others because you don't know what people are really about
Has anyone ever felt like they can't ... - Anxiety and Depre...
Has anyone ever felt like they can't trust anyone and being alone is the best way
I think what you are saying is you have never learnt the social skills necessary to connect with others and make friends? If so then you can learn them as it's never too late.
I was the same, but I sought therapy which helped. Then I watched how others interacted, especially the popular people and learnt social skills. It didn't happen overnight but it is a learning experience. I have never been friendless since.
I understand what you mean about isolating to protect yourself, but that is never going to resolve anything is it. One day you will turn round and you will be 10 years older and very lonely.
It's not easy but you have to be open to the idea of change before your life can improve.
You can connect here... your anonymous so nobody knows who you are, there are others here who feel or have felt the same way... and by sharing it does help me to explore options for dealing with my emotional and mental stuff. I was invisible as a kid, being seen meant being hurt... so I did everything I could not to be seen.
