Lost

I believe my social anxiety is partly due to the fact that i think i have no talents what so ever. Every person has that one thing that they do and that they do well, however i dont have anything that i can do that would captivate people. I do like to write but every time i start writing something i can never finish it. There is nothing that even interests me and i feel like i will never succeed in life because of this. Maybe i just feel lost like this cause im 18 years old and thats usually a confusing time in ones life. However, there is one thing i am strongly passionate about and that i am actually really good at, and that one thing is football. I never tell any of my peers about how much i love football cause i dont play for any team and i dont want to sound like a wanna be. I only play when i come across a group playing a pick up game of football and when i do play everyone is always shocked by how good i am. I used to play for my school but i quit cause the coaches just stuck me in a position i didnt want to play. I guess basically what im saying is that i feel like people wont find me interesting cause im not active in any hobby or anything and nothing, except football, holds my attention:sad::kickingmyself:

Welcome to the forum, Dante. Now let's see here....

I believe my social anxiety is partly due to the fact that i think i have no talents what so ever ... one thing i am strongly passionate about and that i am actually really good at, and that one thing is football.
Your second quote overrides the first, obviously! :bigsmile: You do have a talent. Football is a good talent. You can join leagues and stuff for that.

Maybe i just feel lost like this cause im 18 years old and thats usually a confusing time in ones life.
Yes, this is very true. You're at the peak of ****rty and you are going through a bit of a life change, getting ready to become an adult. Not many people really, truly know what they want to do when they're 18, and your career path, interests, opinions, and views on life will change a lot for the next few decades. ;) It's a tumultuous time, but one to embrace.

ahh yes thank you both for welcoming me, & yes i suppose i am stressing just because i hear all my friends talking about their future and all they have planned and when i evaluate my own future so far there is nothing really planned except for starting college soon yet i still dont know what field i would like to go into but hopefully it'll come to me eventually

Im 20 and i think that you need to experience different fields. It doesnt just come to you out of nowhere.
