Be a rock n roll star.

Hmm... I'll be in college working on getting a master's in dietetics and, hopefully, with an internship. I'll be cured of SA and I'll be living on my own. That's all I want to achieve in 5 years anyway.

You know what, I'm going to be positive here. In 5 years, I'm going to be happy with where I am in life. I can't believe I just said that, haha.
Way to go James! Keep being positive 🙂

For me, well, maybe I'll have a decent job, move out from my mom's house and finally get out from her clutches, hm, meet new best friends, be more comfortable about who I truly am, or maybe meet someone who loves me and really cares about me. Hey, one can dream, can't he? :😛:

In the next 2-3 years if i havent overcome SA yet, probably just commit suicide, not much point in keep living like this tbh, SA is holding me back to study, get a job, get friends,leave the house, cant do any of this, and i think my parents wont maintain me for much longer, so i would have to do something. My guess is probably SA free, with a lot of friends and a job, or dead, sorry im being so negative but its just how i feel.

It scares me to death to think about the future. Right now I have a belief that I'll be better by the time I'm 30 (4 yrs away). However, over the last 5yrs I've only gotten worse so I don't know where the bottom is.

I'd go with shybutsexy and say I'd probably kill myself if I can't improve because it will be so hard to see a point in living. Maybe the fear of death will be the main motivation to overcome my anxiety? Knowing that I'm ready to kill myself might allow me to take a very different attitude towards life. When the thought of killing yourself comes to your mind, all the anxieties seem so trivial. You sort of think, if I'm ready to kill myself, why can't i not give a **** about what people think about me.

I don't know if it's the right attitude, but when the choice is death or overcome my fears related to SA, maybe I'll choose the latter...

I would like to think that I will have finished my degree and I will be working... Hopefully with a boyfriend and planning to move away from home.
