After all of this time, I'm finally looking for help!
I haven't left the house (except for necessary things like funerals) for 8 years. I've never had a girlfriend, and I haven't really talked to another human being (male or female) face-to-face for almost 8 years except for family at the funerals a few times.
Ever since graduating high school is when my life stopped. I'm still living in the past from high school every day as if I just graduated yesterday. I'm 26, almost 27 years old now, I don't know what to do. This is killing me and I feel depressed and miserable all of the time. I feel like I'm trapped like a caged animal.
Hard to believe but true. There are levels of social anxiety, and then there is what I have, an absolute horrid beast of what you would call a "life" if you can even call it that, more like an "existance".
If I can't leave the house to get help, how do I solve it? I'm in a catch-22.
Social anxiety (even if that's what I have) is an absolutely evil thing to have happen to someone, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy (if I had one).
Can anyone offer advise?
