Are there things you like to do that can set your mind at ease? I know it's hard, im going through the same thing. You need to find ways to forget about these feelings and Keep moving

Did you recently pick up on working out? How do u feel when you are there?

Any negative people around you?

[Anxiety15 in reply to martinree]

I feel very self conious but sometimes I feel ok I'm goin bout a yr and sometimes it helps just keep the mind goin

[martinree]

Do u recall how u became self conscious? There maybe an even that happened in the past to trigger the response.

I think you're going about it the right way by picking up hobbies in order to keep your mind off things. Just don't let working out contribute to more stress.

My stress reliever is working on cars, but it is also a cause of stress. Sigh....

Thanks u ☺ yes I have always had my cofidence taking away from me and when something gets into my head it's very hard to get it out i find it very hard to build back my confidence just have to start trying to think different and dn't give negativity a space in my mind hope everything works out for u anxiety is such a horrible thing

If it's at all possible, make all new friends that are positive and stay away from the people that deprive u from your confidence.

For example, If u hang around with a group of people that are up to no good, eventually you will do what they do. Same goes for a group that is cheerful all the time, etc

Hope u find your way!
