Challenges of making friends
Hi. I always feel scared and I have pretty much no self esteem. I suffer from social anxiety in particular and it's debilitating. I don't feel safe in my body and therefore it's hard for me to talk to people. i wish I belonged somewhere and had something in common with someone. Lately, i've ditched all my hobbies because of depression and I feel like i have nothing to talk about with people. I feel like i've become an uninteresting person and i want to change that. I'm looking for hobbies to start small with, since I easily get overwhelmed with change. I am so so scared of trying new things out and I don't feel confident at all. I hope that this uneasiness will fade with time and practice.
Do you ever feel like you can't connect with other people for some reason or another? How do you face these issues?
Looking forward to read your responses.
