I literally feel that so much. I feel like I’ve missed out on a lot of friendships because of my social anxiety. Like I feel like I don’t know how to socialize like a normal person. Like if someone approaches me and starts talking to me I can keep up, but I have no idea how to make friends if someone doesn’t friend me. I really hate it and I feel like I missed out on so much in high school and college. I don’t know how old you are but don’t let it hold you back because you’ll regret it. Please get the help that you need.
