Mine were health
and what doctors have done to me throughout my life

Having my driving revoked, for a total of 5.5 years
This has been linked to my conditipn - epilepsy. And other reasons.
Today, I'm stuck on a dilemma to either follow the law, offroad, or defeat that by carrying on as normal

Most preventions have been due to the law in this country. This brings SA and deep depression.

There should be no law at all. I heard a phrase when I was an infant: free speech
There should be no regulation. If there was NO law in our civilisation, we would live free, and happy. We'd accept each other, and treat everyone right. We'd deal with everything openly

My shyness/confidence

I am pretty sure that if I wasnt so afraid of people, I would be exposing myself to more of what life has to offer. I would be doing a lot better.

I think I am getting better though - I am just waiting for that inevitable event that will bring me down so so low that will take me years of psycholgical anguish to recover from...

My past, the people around me, my family. It's like people tried to help me but I cause more and more trouble. My family thought I was stupid for self-harming myself or saying that there is something wrong with me. I don't trust my family anymore. If people thought I was overreacting, you guys are wrong.

Example: a CS classmate of mine contacted me a couple of days ago asking whether I'd like to meet for coffee some time this week before he heads back to... I don't even know where.

We'd tried to meet up a few years ago (probably after I finally joined Facebook). The first time I had a mild headache which I parlayed into a migraine to avoid going. The second time I left after five minutes; he turned up about five minutes later.

I was too scared to meet up with him for fear of what he'd think of me and what my life has become. I haven't replied to email. I'm not sure I'll ever find the courage to.

You should catch up with him. Something good may come with seeing each other again. :) I say find that courage inside you to email him. I'm sure he will think you are just fine.

A couple of other old acquaintances got in touch this week out of the blue (!) and I did mange to get back to them.

So I'm trying to convince myself that that's enough.

MONEY: I've got lots of plans set but the money is missing.
Some health issues that I'm working on.
Fear of driving:I have a driving license but can't drive because I always get obsessive thoughts of someone popping up in front of me and me hitting the gas pedal instead of the break.

Well the most obvious is the s phobia but also;

Low self esteem
Low confidence
fear of rejection
Avoidant personality disorder which stems from the above, in the end people won't put up with someone who avoids them all the time ::(:
