I’m new here and been struggling with depression
I have
social
anxiety
, I’m scared to talk to girls, and my circle of sober supports are getting smaller because I do a horrible job of keeping up with friends.

Severe anxiety and depression that never stops.
I'm getting more agoraphobic and my
social
anxiety
is through the roof. I'm still on two mental health medications but I don't find much help with them.

People being patronizing due to my social anxiety. How do I stop this?
Due to my
social
anxiety
, I’ve been in situations where people have either been patronizing towards me, or they’ve told me that I come across a certain way and I need to change. Like for example, my manager at work told me I look miserable, have no social skills and I need to be more confident.

How did you find support?
It's the loneliness that hurts the most. How can so many people unanimously agree that I am not good enough to be there friend? I must be defective. I didn't have depression the whole time either. We had good times. But then I'm ghosted. I don't get it. I need help. How do other people have such great

Me
Some I've been able to work out myself, like working on pretty severe
social
anxiety
for years Now, I'm the outgoing
social
person I was born to be.
Anxiety
, however, is a continuing theme in my life. I've had several bouts of severe, diabling depression.

what to do when my Mum won't get help?
From reading around, this seems like quite severe general
anxiety
disorder and maybe
social
anxiety
, with depression. However my Mum will not take any steps to get help. She avoids taking any action, and won't engage with ideas like counselling or therapy.

Having a hard time
Hi Everyone, I’m new here, very first post. Not sure where to begin so I’ll just dive right in. I’m 38, a wife and mother to an 18 month old daughter. We struggled with infertility for 4 years but with IVF finally had my daughter and she is perfect. I have always suffered with depression and anxiety

Recognition
Learning that removes guilt and shame. If someone tries to use those emotions on yourself. Hint: recognition comes from the heart. So ask yourself. Do you have one? If so, whatever you choose to recognize. True or false. It comes from your heart, whether that may be for yourself or others. Self

Ashamed of never having a boyfriend, and being a virgin.
As I mention a lot in my posts, my
social
anxiety
gets in the way of most of my day-to-day life, and I am working on it as I am currently going to therapy so I am definitely trying to work on myself and my self-esteem first. But I still feel very ashamed of this.

Comparison is killing me in school? How will I become a good nurse?!
It's not that I do not know the material, it is because of my lack of confidence and
social
anxiety
. Imagine you meeting with a nurse and the nurse is timid, shy, and quiet. Would you trust that nurse?
