When i was younger i was one of the more popular people in school, I was even the class clown and a loud mouth. Everyone liked me and i felt confident and good about my life. Once I hit high school everything went down hill and gradually ive become dam near antisocial and very depressed. I am now 20 so ive been out of school for 2 years now. I work a shitty job and i do not go to college and I really have no ambition to do anymore then that. When i go places i have a hard time talkin to people and if i build up enough confidence to start a conversation I cant hold a conversation very long before becoming very uncomfortable. I feel extremely uncomfortable when talking to people and i think everyone is talkin about me and looking at me. I feel like im out of my mind but at the same time i dont. I tend to make excuses to avoid hanging out with people i dont know well and avoiding partys and social events which i once loved to go to. i feel like people give the appearance of liking me but really dont and could care less if i were around or not. I have a hard time making eye contact with people also. I dont know what is wrong with me but i want to be comfortable with my life again like i once was. i sometimes feel like what i say is weird and not normal at all. someone please help
Pretty much everything you sed describes me aswell, a few month ago i have got a job and have stuck with it, and now i think am doing abit better, but still far from normal,a few year back i pretty much become a recloos, i never left the house unless i needed to, and when i did i felt very un-uncomphtable and paranoid, if i heard someone laughing i would assume they were laughing at me and think it was becouse of the way i was walking or look or something, i also avoided as much social accaisions as i could and avoided talking to people as much as i could, trying to talk to someone shouldnt make you/me/anyone feel so uncomphtable that your just dieing to get out of there and be by yourself.
I'm trying now to get past this, but its hard, if anyone can hel us in anyway we'd really apprisiate it :-)
