Introverts and depression.

Question

Asked for Male, 19 Years

I'm really an introvert. I hate crowds, women and basically can't talk if there is more than 2 people in the room. Also I have a very few friends. And they always ditch me. I don't have anyone to run to if I am depressed. What do I do? I really like to socialize but when I try to, I am afraid of it. I'm afraid of talking to people. I'm afraid of making friends. I'm afraid of visiting public places or small gatherings. How do I make new friends?

I am able to understand ur difficulties. U seem to have some of the symptoms of social anxiety. It makes a person lose his confidence and reduces his potential. V would need to know a few more details like ur sleep, frequency, other situations that might make u anxious etc to give appropriate suggestions. Ur problem can be easily treated with counselling and if needed medications. U will be able to function better with it. Don't let ur problems affect ur personal or professional help. U need to consult a psychiatrist. If u want to consult online, I will be more than happy to consult u. Best wishes for speedy recovery!!
