Very much so. I am not lazy by any means but when it comes to the social aspect of integrating into society... oh how draining. If you are young do not waste time just because you are afraid and want to prolong dealing with reality. You will spend your later years playing catchup with no solid foundation.

I am home almost all the time, and if I do go somewhere I never go alone. If I have an outing I need to do I like to know about it in advance so I can start getting mentally prepared.
I can't work right now, but my problems go beyond social anxiety (lupus) so the combined problems make working impossible.
It definitely effects every aspect of my life.

You remind me of my best friend, it would take her hours, sometimes days to
Leave her front door and she needed to have one of her parents with her at
All times just in case she had a panic attack or she died and nobody
Would find her. She had a really bizarre imagination. She used to think she was
Constantly going to die and because she was so rapped up in that thought all the time her brain would trick her into feeling physical symptoms, was strange. Me though wasn't that bad can go to the store but not for long periods of time.

I don't feel like going into the details but I tend to find reasons to put off things. It's like digging yourself deeper and deeper into a hole.

Yeah, I am a workhorse when it comes to domestic things including manual labor/yardwork. I'd rather spend a full day doing that than 15 minutes being around people and playing the schmoozing game. But that is not an option.
 
the end

This is me exactly right now. I've been sucked into a void, and I can't go out in the real world to do ANYTHING. I avoid life in all it's entirety, I don't have work, school, or the slightest bit of a social life right now. Avoiding living life only makes things worse, but it's hard to know where to even begin with this. I don't belong in this world and I feel completely disconnected from society. I don't want to be a part of it.

Raises hand. Since I got laid off half year ago I have been in this void. Initially I was going about looking for a new job, but after receiving mostly rejections I kind of don't have the focus to care anymore. I am just basically doing nothing all day except dating a person I don't really want to date. I feel stucked, I have nothing else in my life otherwise.
