Hi. I'm a 23 year old male from florida. I've been dealing with social phobia for a long time. It started when I was in high school around the age of 16 and has been this way ever since. I can barely look people in the eyes when I talk to them, even my family, as soon as I get near any people I start getting into self destruct mode. Its very debilitating, I have absolutely no friends at all, I spend all day doing this, (surfing the internet), I truthfully have no aquaintances in this country and I've been here for over 8 years. The increasing loneliness has added to the phobia, it has also created a deep depression, I have no self esteem, no drive, no motivation, I simply languish in inner sorrow everyday. Luckily my mother lets me stay with her, she doesnt know how to help me anymore, I feel like such a disappointment, almost every other 23 yr old is doing something with their lives and all I do is watch t.v. everyday. I've asked my mom to see a doctor but she doesnt have the money right now, I hope something can work for me, this is not a good way to live.
