What can I do? I have tried for many years now to ignore it, but it only makes it worse. I have mental problems, but I can't tell anyone because that is one of my problems.
I have social fear as well as depression anxiety stress and trust issues. I don't trust my parents or siblings. I have one person I can trust and that is my only friend.
I am having troubles almost every day. I get panick attacks if I am with people for a while, and very often I can't go away because I'm scared. Even though I know that's weird, because I don't even know what I'm scared of. If people talk to me I get stressed out because I don't know how to act in a situation like that and if I am supposed to do something I always do it as good as possible because I'm scared of letting someone down or disappointing them. When I am alone I think of everything that have happened and every little mistake I have made and what's you're afraid will happen the next time you meet a person.

Help me

I understand. I've been there and felt that. It takes practice to feel at ease to be with people. I understand the lasting negative feeling you talk about. But I brush it off. It takes some practice but gradually you will find it easy to just brush that off and focus on other things. To use a simple analogy: When I feel cold, if I keep telling myself "I am so cold, it's very cold", then I naturally feel colder and colder, even though I am hugging a hot water bottle. But if I tell myself "I want to feel warm. I will feel warm soon." Then suddenly the cold becomes less unbearable. And I start to feel more warmth coming from the hot water bottle. Because then, my thoughts are moving towards warmth, so I notice more of the warmth. The same goes for every challenging situation. If we focus and delve into the negative, we will only go deeper into negative things. But if we start thinking towards the positive and what we want to be, chances are we will be moving towards that positive state sooner. Take care.
