Social Anxiety NEET

My therapist is my only social contact. I rarely talk to anyone else in real life, AMA

Where do you get the shekels to pay for the therapist?

that's what I want to know. Are you a gay prostitute, OP?

I've inherited enough to just sperg out at home.

how long do you think this inheritance will last?

don't you interact with cashiers, when you have to buy toiletries, sundries or groceries?

not full out conversations but polite "hello how are you" kind of shit everyone has to do with most cashiers

How long have you been at it?

Probably for life, if I'm not too wasteful.
I say hello, thanks and good bye. I don't like doing it because I feel my voice sounds retarded.

Around 5 years

how did you murder your parents and make it look like an accident or suicide?

what does your voice sound like?
is there a public figure, movie star, celebrity you could say sounds like you?

Please record one of your previous posts on Vocaroo and let us hear for ourselves. Thanks

don't do it user it's a complete waste of money. I'd therapy twice a week (1 hr. each) for years and it didn't fucking help.

wew. has it cured you yet?

(though I had/have depression, not so much social anxiety)

It was related to age and healh tbh

A little bit like Charlie Sheen's, vocaroo is not gonna happen, though.

I did manage to lose weight and get /fit/ in that time, though. I'd say therapy was a support in that regard. Socially, I still feel overwhelmed with many situations and as a result tend to avoid them.

5 years is nothing
if you had social anxiety you wouldn't have made a gay ama thread
go fuck yourself
fuck you

I hope you're a nigger, because I love it when niggers suffer!

Autism has been ruled out so I got diagnosed with SocAnx. I do find these categories of personality disorders a little senseless, though.

I'm not black.

is it actual social anxiety?
I thought I had that a while back, but now Im pretty sure its Avoidance Personality Disorder

me neither, let's meet and have sex

Here a remede against social anxiety.

...

Charlie Sheen doesn't sound that bad

Yeah, I thought about that, too. They do seem very similar. In what way are you dealing with it?
I've attended a couple of group meetings but as you would expect from a anxiety self-help group, everyone kept mostly to themselves.

N-no…

Well you should cut off your own clitoris since you don't want ro share it anyway, you selfish bastard.

Well my Avoidance isn't crippling, its just annoying.
The reason I knew it wasn't social anxiety is because from what I read you cant even be around people, no kind of group of people… I can be around people if necessary, but I don't enjoy it and quickly get through it and return home to be by myself

How much money do you burn through monthly, roughly

Do all your neighbors think of you as the creepy dude?

...

Im a guy
wait… do I type like a female?
great, now Im going to be self conscious about the way I type
THANKS OBAMA!

I would describe the feeling I get when interacting with others as something between stage fright and fear of failure and self doubt.

around 2.5k

I would say so, yes, except for a very old lady. She often strikes up conversations with me and I'm not sure whether she doesn't get that I'm weird or she does get it but isn't creeped out by it.

The way I get through being in a crowd of people is I treat them like trees. Like when I go to Home Depot or Walmart, I imagine all the people Im walking past as inanimate objects. Its weird… the larger the crowds the more at ease I feel, I guess I feel like I blend in and don't stand out in such a large crowd.

That's interesting. I tried something similar but it doesn't work for me. I automatically assume that people find me terrible wherever I go and then sperg out about it too much.

My apologies.
I have a lot more respect for fruities than I have for women, at least fag don't give power to the succubus.

That's the thing, you have to commit to thinking all people are just objects to walk past or move around. You don't worry about a bush judging you, or a large rock whispering behind your back, right. No eye contact no interaction, just move and keep moving.

Now Im a "fruity"?
I consider myself a straight male tho


(I do have a trap, tranny fetish, so theres that)

just came in here, don't wanna read whole thread.
What is your diagnose?

… and now you fell into the hands of a therapists, whose livelyhood depends on you remaining an outcast. it's like you can't catch a break, OP.

old been through alot, they understand

OP here

Social anxiety disorder/Depression

Kinda gets that noggin joggin', doesn't it.

kill yourself snowflake? answer "yes"

I've been through this over and over again, as in really struggling whether to do it or not. Once I had a dream, where I would hang myself in my bathroom and then, as I was slowly fading out of life, I started having second thoughts and tried to free myself from the noose. But it was too late and I died. After waking up from this dream, I've made up my mind that I definitely don't want to kill myself. Instead, I'm striving to give my life a purpose, I haven't quite found it yet, but I think I'm closer than I have been, let's say, 1-2 years ago. Praise Kek.

Have you been doing anything apart from living and shitposting?

I have some light version of social anxiety or avoidant personality disorder I think. I haven't been properly diagnosed with it but I've been to therapists and similar shit before.
I don't exactly hate being around friends and I don't feel like the world is ending just because I'm around strangers at the store or on the street, at worst I'm slightly uneasy when it's people I don't know. But I really don't like to leave my apartment if I have the option. If I had unlimited funds I'd sit in front of my PC, smoke weed all day completely alone and never leave my home.
If I hang out with people for a prolonged time I get exhausted and need to be alone for at the very least a few days.

I have some friends but I'm terrible at keeping in touch and I believe I've lost countless of friends to that. I just don't feel the need to socialize all that much and prefer my solitude.
I go to school because in my socialist country they pay you a decent sum and it's better than getting a job, I still live with my mother so the rent isn't very high either. We have a decent relationship but I prefer being alone.


I guess my point of this post was to see if anyone else feels similar and actually has gotten diagnosed or have a better understanding. Maybe it's not a disorder and I just don't like being around people all that much.

OOHHH BOO I'M SUCH A VICTIM NOBODY ELSE HAS TO GO THROUGH THIS BURDEN I'M THE ONLY ONE IN THE FUCKING WORLD WHO THIS APPLIES TO BECAUSE IT'S NOT LIKE OTHERS HAVE THE EXACT FUCKING SAME THOUGHTS TOO BUT JUST DEAL WITH IT BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT CANCEROUS NIGGERS OHH MAN I'M SO FUCKING OPPRESSED LIFE IS OUT TO GET ME PLS HELP GUYS

THIS GUY DOESN'T SCREAM WHEN HE HAS A ROCK THROWN AT HIM WHILE I DO SO I KNOW HE DOESN'T FEEL PAIN IT'S LIKE IT DOESN'T EXIST SO I KNOW EXPERIENCING PAIN LIKE I DO IS NOT NORMAL AND I DESERVE SUPPORT

I went to law school but couldn't handle the crowd or talking to people so I just stayed at home and after a year they kicked me out. I've had some office jobs in the past, too.

Good point. The question is, why don't you like hanging out with people? Clearly, the average person is longing for human contact, why don't we? What was it that spoiled it for us?

Wew lad

Should've been more specific; do you have any hobbies apart from living and shitposting?

Correction:I do wish for more human contact but I feel like I can't handle it. Also, to other people I offer little reason for them to hang out with a person like me. Attempts to change myself for the better didn't help that much/weren't good enough

I like to work out, I like to read/keep updated on politics, I like discovering new music and sometimes take hikes. I also like putting on some synthwave and driving through the night while everyone else is asleep.
