It sure seems that way. I tried joining a couple of social groups on this site the meet around town and make friends. Last one I went to, no one showed up and the one before that I got put out for being late and told I had to pay money o.o. Long story. I tried all my Freshman year in college too. But Im ten years older than everyone and dont live in the dorms so when I tried to get people to let me in on what was going on after hours they talked to me like I was a professor or something. I guess everyone my age is too busy building a family to be out looking for friends.

Hmm sounds like a tough one! Have you tried voluntary work? Thats always a good way to meet people of all ages. Or maybe even community centres? I wouldn't give up m8. If you want it enough, you should persevere. We all deserve to achieve our dreams
I know that defeating my anxiety is my biggest dream.

I plan to one day make a plan.

Here's the key - that one day should be today! NOW! Or begin. One day will always remain "one day" =D I've figured that out and still do that but all it takes is one day to make that day TODAY and you're on your way.

Thats not a bad idea actually. Since Im not working an actual job at the moment. I just need to make the time for it

Exactly my plan I think. Something a few days a week... build confidence. I don't want to make the leap into a high pressured job which is the job I would be doing right away after my lame summer. And feel better about yourself helping others. Even if it's something small you end up doing.

Hopefully college will help me open up more. I'm also thinking about joining a youth group of sorts where I can meet more people my age (who are actually nice). Working at the local library has also helped me open up a bit more and the fact that it's such a quiet environment and people don't expect you to talk much really helps put me more at ease around customers when I need to interact with them.

I have a few plans...which is a problem, as I am horrible at making decisions. My two main plans involve therapy, but at different places (the local mental health department, where I have gone to therapy before, and/or my university, where I am enrolled, but not attending, classes). I also have the support of my friends and wonderful boyfriend (some of whom have issues with anxiety themselves), so whatever I decide, I know they will back me on it. Now I just have to decide, and make an appointment...
Plans never work for me. I always end up doing the exact opposite of what i planned.

I plan on taking things a day at a time, but nearly always fail at that. My mind races waaaay too much.
I have less positive plans, but they stay buried somewhere where I won't think of them.

i know this probably isn't helpful but...
i don't plan on "fixing" myself. it has taken me since I was 13 years old to figure out who i am,what i like,what i dislike,etc...now that i KNOW who i am finally at nearly 29 years old...i am NOT letting that person go.
I plan on keeping my circle of people small and close. I plan on working on things that develop my creative side and I plan on saying to heck with people who don't like me.
it is a powerful feeling when you finally realize you know exactly what you want and who you are. Even if that person isn't who you thought you'd be when you were younger.
