That's good to hear. What do you do to force yourself to do it? What is your advice for me about facing my fears if my anxiety is the same?

Oh. If you don't mind what country is that in? Yea there is most of the time. Do you have any advice for me if I want to stop avoiding things or at least not be anxious when they arise? Also I tried the positive affirmations they don't motivate me to face my fears yet.

That's good. Do you expose yourself to real life situations such as socialization? I do for the reasons I mentioned. Sorry but what do you think about me saying that most of the things I want to do are on the same level of anxiousness so I can't really start at what makes me the most anxious?

So you don't avoid social interaction, YouTube, and music anymore? Do you mean so you don't have to go to their concert? I mostly communicate on forums and a pen pal site and a little in person. Thank you for the advice. Somethings don't make me anxious but most of the things I want to watch...

I don't know an example of a replacement thought but Loyal gave me an example so I get it now. I'll try using these affirmations but just getting started is very hard to do in regards to what I'm very anxious about. But I'll see how it goes though.

I avoid sports because I have perfectionist tendencies where I have to be caught up to watch and I get anxious as well. But I know that being caught up to watch is irrational though but it makes everything more understandable though. General comments where? I agree there are trolls and ignorance...

Mine is due to many fears such as I don't know what to expect, the unknown, overthinking more than I have to, being anxious, possibly having to change my life, possibly hearing something negative, and possibly hearing something that I disagree with or that makes me feel inferior to someone. Also...

I think I have avpd. I could try but I have many fears as I don't know what to expect, the unknown, overthinking more than I have to, being anxious, possibly having to change my life, possibly hearing something negative, and possibly hearing something that I disagree with or that makes me feel...

I do avoid the news and other things but I do listen to my own music too. I feel bad or like I'm disappointing them. Do you have any advice on how I can stop avoiding these things?

Does anybody avoid a lot of things like sports, news, music, comments, TV shows, movies, YouTube videos, and people talking due to anxiety, not wanting to feel inferior to someone, and overthinking? I do all the time so much that I'm behind or I miss out on many things everyday. And sometimes I...

I don't go out a lot because of an current circumstance I have tbh (something I will share in private if you want). Plus I only go out when I have to even without the current circumstance. Otherwise I don't go out a lot. Do you sleep long hours at night or day?

Oh I see now. Photoshop costs money then? What is Monoprice, a site to buy stuff on? I figure Gimp is an editing program, what do you edit on Gimp? By animations you mean coloring in characters on After Effects? Oh. I know what you mean now. It helped. Sorry for asking so much questions. Why...

Isn't Photoshop for altering pictures? I could use it for sketching? I don't think I'm the most artistic person. But I guess I could try it. Is it free for After Effects and Sketching apps? But I need options without a screen as well as I do spend to much time on the screen. What do you mean by...

It good to know someone relates. The problem is I can't sleep most of day because I won't sleep good at night and it hurts my eyes to sleep a long time other then night time sometimes. Although I tried. What do you suggest I do for boredom because of anxiety and lack of motivation?

I'm haven't been doing good recently. My anxiety and lack of motivation leaves me being bored for most of the day. Being bored is a bad feeling for me because I have this hopeless feeling sometimes. I get frustrated with myself unfortunately.

I'll respond to you in private for this post.

I found it, it makes sense. So you just face in peoples direction when you talk to them but not look at them in the eye? Just curious.

I been bored recently because of my lack of motivation and anxiety/fear. It doesn't help that I don't have many hobbies/interests that I can't do at home. Even when I do find things to do I'm either to anxious/scared and or unmotivated to do them depending on what it is. I guess I should make to...

Me too I find it difficult because I forget a lot to encourage myself and I only build myself up when necessary. For me anxiety/fear and lack of motivation makes back down from doing some things I want to do.

Oh I'll check it out. Oh okay I was confused.
