This happens in a loop

...See more Right now, I’m struggling to be productive. I want to learn a high-value skill to earn money. I’m 21 and want to create a better life for myself and my family. I’ve always had a passion for marketing and psychology, but at the moment, I don’t feel like working. I feel empty and constantly find myself seeking short-term pleasures like *** reels. It’s easy for me to break out of such habits, but even then, I still don’t feel motivated to work on my career. My life would be so much more interesting if I followed through with the plans I’ve made for the next few months. I’ve identified my issue through a book, which contains everything I need to overcome low self-esteem using CBT exercises. However, I still struggle to get up and read even a few pages each day.

No friends

...See more I have been living without a friend ever since I completed school. I’ve never found a compatible friend in my life. Social anxiety and my disability have kept me from going out. I’m 21 now, and I’m still following the same pattern. I’ve tried *** groups and *** to find someone to talk to, but it never worked out. I’m not sure if I’m being too needy by wanting a friend, or if there’s something I need to change to be noticed. Maybe there’s a place I haven’t found yet where someone like me exists.

...See more I don’t know exactly what this feeling is, but I’ll share a little bit about my past. I’ve always had social anxiety and struggled in school to make friends. I was insulted and bullied by many. I always tried to escape from social gatherings to feel safe. Things got worse when I was diagnosed with scoliosis. I lost the few friends I had because I wasn’t cool to them anymore. I’m 21 now, and all of this has significantly impacted the way I see myself. I started seeing positive changes when I tried to fix this through journaling. But right now, I feel clueless about what exactly this new feeling is. I want a friend, but I always end up being too good to others, only to be replaced by someone else. It feels like I’ve never truly discovered my social identity.
