31. Live alone with no friends because I developed bad social anxiety and bad ocd with a nice dose of clinical depression to top of it. I also work from home so don’t interact with anyone really. I’m afraid to work with people now since I feel like I don’t belong or fit in anywhere.
My only hobby was the gym. Going 6 times a day eating good. Dropped like 30lbs. Thought it would make me feel better but I think the gym just gives me worse anxiety.
I’m afraid of everything and talking to people which sucks because I used to be the opposite
And good with people.
I’ve tried to be positive but it doesn’t work anymore. I’m just angry and alone all the time. obsessing about negative things. I’m in a hole and I can’t get out. Everyone else is partying and getting hammered on st Patty’s like I used to years ago before I turned into this.
I’m just miserable and don’t want to live like this anymore, but I can’t fix it. I’m too far gone.
Happy st party’s day and hopefully you’re drunk and not talking about being depressed on the internet while sitting in the dark. Wouldn’t recommend it

Dude I got over my anxiety by taking a lot of vitamin D3 and fishoil every day. Chances are that you are a shut-in that doesn't get enough sunlight, making the vitamin D problem even worse. Also going no-fap works wonders for anxiety. Yoghurt and fiber also helps since if your gut bacteria are ****ed up, you'll feel anxious as well.

Vitamins arnt my problem. I take multi extra bit c, d, b complex, zinc. Def light on the sun though. Tried going for walks for a week but it just stressed me out seeing people. I can’t believe I’m this messed up.
I actually took a good probiotic recently for my gut. Getting nailed with non stop heartburn. I’m prescribed meds for it now. Falling apart inside and out. I do t know how to live anymore and can’t fix it.

I had heartburn from overeating. Although being anxious can interfere with your digestion. Try a digestive enzyme supplement.
The reason I got into bodybuilding in the first place is my childhood made me feel small and scared and gave me a lot of anxiety. When I got bigger than 90 percent of men I felt better and got the space I needed to understand why I felt the way I did.
Yeah sometimes it's just the place where you are.

He's not declining bro. He got paid big money but he had leverage here. We lost out on Norwell, so we had to make this happen. We got Ogletree and some new linebackers familiar with Bettcher. I was hoping Mathieu would play along side Collins but the Texans got us back for Solder. We need a corner, Apple is a cock sucker.

It started happening before I moved here and got worse when I lived alone the first time.
I’m the opposite. I’ve always been big. I’ve been 6’4 since like the 9th grade.
I really think my anxiety got worse when I started hitting the gym even harder I don’t know why.
I actually took those. The medicine I’m on after my endoscopy made me feel better instantly though. just getting old and need old people pills.

We needed a lt more than anything so we could move flowers because he’s “special”. Yeah the only really bad pick up was Stewart. Way overpaid for such a garbage old rb. I wanted the honey badger too, but didn’t think it would happen.
Yep apple might be more whacked than me haha he was talking **** to 14 year olds telling them they suck at football. The guy is trash. Can’t be a headcase in this game. Which is why Webb won’t work out. I went to Texas tech and had to watch him play.

I think gym was a mistake. I’m too hardcore about it because I was serious with diet and wanted results. I actually look pretty good but most of the time I was just pissed off at people being slow, texting, being in my way doing an exercise that isn’t real.
I think the gym is a weird social dynamic which made me way worse.
I thought about going, but I’m not good at going to places alone. I used to be able to talk to anyone anywhere. I was the exact opposite. That’s the worst part. I was a social person so not being able to do it anymore really hits me hard.
I know I need to just suck it up and try, but when I do I get in my own head and go off the deep end with my thoughts. It really sucks.

Listen kent:
-Go get a part time job in a retail setting on the weekend/at night (this will be for awhile but temporary in the scheme of your life)
-Go take a local community college uni in person class on something you find interesting. Only 1 class needed (31 isn't too old at local CC. You'd feel out of place at like ASU but not regular schools.)
^This will force you to interact with people, eventually you'll find yourself shooting the chit with coworkers. When you hit this step then:
-Join a local recreation class whether it be yoga or gym related or some art chit if you're a *******.
-Start asking people to go out to grab a brew with you.
It's important to keep yourself in social environments or you will turn into a rotter brah. You must force yourself back into it weekly.Last edited by peterplsss; 03-18-2018 at 08:03 AM.

I already have a bachelors degree. I agree about the part time job. I’ve thought about that or doing community service.
My schedule is all ****ed up too. I sleep most of the day and stay up all night. I never want to go to bed at night for some reason. I feel like I’m missing out if I do, but sleeping all day doesn’t bother me. Always been like that, but I think now it’s worse and def not helping.
I know. Being alone with yourself and nothing but your head is dangerous. I’m just worried I’m too far gone and forgot how to be natural with people. If I do talk to someone at all throughout the day I obsess over it and dissect it. It’s depressing how far gone I am. Feels crazy even saying this stuff. Never thought this would be my life.
Used to be great with girls and talking to anyone. Now eye contact makes me nervous.
I def don’t like art for the record. At least I have that going for me

I think Webb might be aiight tho.
Eli = GOAT
Lol, I need to find this thread from Superbowl 46 that I made predicting that the Giants would smoke the Packers and all the Greenbay misc *******s were like "LMAO YA RITE." Then they disappeared to eat their cheese while they cried into Aaron Rodger's cum filled *******.NEW YORK FOOTBALL GIANTS

You don't need to be seeking a degree to take classes brah and just because you have a degree doesn't mean you can never take a class again. Community college classes are cheap as fuk and I know a few adults that have taken a programming class, or a photography class or some sht just for fun and to meet some people. If I ever find myself bored or move to a new area I'll for sure find a class in something I'm a little interested in to go chat up some sloots and meet new people.
But the point is having a set thing like a part time in person job or a class will also force you to fix your sleep schedule. The benefits will be exponential. A retail job will be the easiest start, classes whether they be school or yoga classes will take initiative to be social so I'd say that is step 2, and step 3 is gonna be ask a bro to grab a brew or a sloot to grab a taste of the dink.
Once you build a small little social circle to hangout with you can ditch the part time job and class bullchit and then go out with those people to meet new people. But for now you need some crutches *******.

People hate the giants because we’re a wild card. We can lose to the browns and then beat the pats. Both of those years of the last 2 super bowl wins we had turning points where we just clicked. After that we were on fire. The Green Bay game in 10 we had to beat the refs too. Even more than usual
It’s all about heating up st the right time. I knew when we almost beat the pats the last game of the reg season in 06 we were super bowl bound. There was also a turning point with cruz in 10 that I knew we were gonna take off and go again.
That’s one thing I love about being a giants fan. You get both the extremes of absolutely painful and ****ing amazing.
Webb is the worst kind of guy. He has the talent to look amazing in moments. But it isn’t the real him. He’ll string you along and play like garbage after having one good game that gives you hope.

I dont understand this. When I started lifting weight it changed everything about my mood and perception... I have never been so happy and I've been on the magic for over 10 years now, sometimes it boggles my mind how I can get so happy but its true... those chemical signals are free for us. Just make them appear.
So heres my initial diag: you are not doing the gym correctly. Are you doing squat/bench/dead like you should be? should be flyin' from that....

I know you’re right. I need to go to therapy again, which has never worked and get s job where I’m forced to be with people. I worry no one I work with will like me. That’s one of the big anxiety things in my head. Got treated like **** at a job with an nhl team and a bad rebuilding time where people were getting fired left and right and everyone was bitter. I moved for the job and that not working out really ****ed me up. I need to suck it up and stop being a bitch.
I had a gf the last couple years. She wasn’t very social with people either though so it made me a little worse I think. We just hung out with each other. Mostly on weekends because she lived an hour away. Kind of a weird deal

A 6'4" young guy, who is not only able bodied but in good shape? Man, shut the phuck up. You don't need to be positive, in fact, you can be pessemistic and still face your fears. It's about fear of rejection.
Join a group or club and improve your social skills. They are just neurological pathways that atrophy like any other nerve when you don't use it
