You know what? I'm sick of all of this! It
s so boring! For the first time, I feel pretty OK about being shy. I'm convinced that people can still live happily, even if they do have problems.
There's no cure, man. There's no one shot, one kill, magic express route to escaping it all. Take all the pills you want, do what I did and try to find the mathematic notation for it all (lol), do whatever - you're just going to realize that no cure exists. And no, I'm not being negative about it. In fact, I've never felt so balanced out in my life.
Everytime somebody comes up with a cure, is seems so short termed. Have you ever felt completely psyched up for battling your shyness or anxiety? How long does that normally last - a day or so? And for all these people who use alcohol as a crutch - what the fuck. The more you have to use it, the more your body suffers the consequence. There's better ways to kill yourself.
So take a deep breath for a minute. Think about it. So what if you are shy/socially anxious/depressed/BDD/had a bad childhood/ or a million and half other things that basically means you don't like yourself? Dude, who cares? Don't spend the rest of your life in misery trying to figure it all out - it's so not worth it. I may only be 18, but I've dealt with this shit for long enough to know that the more you struggle, the harder it tugs on you. The more you relax, and just feel okay with it, the more it loosens it's grip.
It's so pointless. Nobody should have to spend their entire lives trying to merely 'escape' it all. I truly sympathize with any of you who feel this way, because I know all too much what it's like.
So to sum it all up, do what feels good. It doesn't always have to be an uphill battle. I've tried every cure in the book, and let me tell you off the bat - they're all bogus. Few work, most are quick fixes, and none of it is going to transform you into something you're not.
So dammit, man! I don't know about you. but this one's not going to be a fight for me anymore. I don't even fucking care - I'm just gonna live, with or without it. Anybody with me?
