I can't understand why I'm ok with seeing and talking to strangers. Yet, with people I know I get really anxious and will do anything to try and avoid them as much as possible. Is anyone else in here the same?
If I had to see those strangers again, my anxiety would start to build up and would become a problem. I've spent years trying to fight this but it hasn't worked and I feel as though I've given up. This is similar to what I experienced in the jobs I had and it would always lead me to leaving the places I worked in after a while. I would be ok on the first day and then gradually get quieter with people as time went by. I kept changing jobs but the same thing happened everywhere I went, unless I worked on my own. Now, I've been unemployed for several years and would really like to earn a living working from home in order to take the financial pressure off me and also start building some self esteem.
Can someone please offer some advice?
