At uni you'd still have to interact with humans though?

There's got to be something that you want to do outside? Jogging? Shopping? Eating somewhere? Cinema?


Yeah i'd like to but i don't have any friends either so yeah... and i don't like human interaction

Seriously? If you're not going to do anything with your own life, at least help your mum out.

How old are you?

I am a introvert and i go out. This statement means nothing really though.

You are probably depressed. If you have to think about it and can't discern from regular introversion and depression, my guess is you are depressed.

What's on ya mind?


IDK i put on 2 stones and i've gotten real ugly and fat and other uni issues + family stuff

I live on my laptop my spare time is all the hours in the day. I watch vlogs, check social media, read the news, stare outside my huge bedroom window just the usual. I live with family i usually go down once or twice from my bedroom to say hi to them


Wow you remind me of myself so much... Have you ever considered that social anxiety might be the cause of this?

Then i'd try my best to figure it out otherwise i'd HAVE to go and ask for help which i'd hate and have to put on a happy face whilst interacting with others which makes it worse because i hate having to be so fake and pretending to be happy around others

Thankfully, social anxiety can be overcome. You just have to tell us what exactly you fear about talking to others. If it's family making you lack confidence, just remember that it isn't the same outside of the house.
What's it like not having a job to go to everyday then lol

Nope that's not an option to live a life like this for anyone. I'm getting help for it and already making progress. I suggest you speak to your GP about it - tell her you would like some counselling and CBT therapy for your social anxiety. It feels really good to speak to someone qualified about problems so personal as they are not there to judge you, they are there to help you. Also order the book "overcoming social anxiety" by Gillian butler - it goes for £2 on eBay. Very good book definitely recommend. Also if it's of any consolation Johnny Depp has it - look how far he's gone. He's got his own team of therapists that help him through it
If I stay home for two weeks, ain't nothing to it, Tumblr logic made me do it.

If I watch five seasons in one day, ain't nothing to it, Tumblr logic made me do it.

If I don't see sunlight, ain't nothing to it, Tumblr logic made me do it.

If I never socialize, ain't nothing to it, Tumblr logic made me do it.

If I demonize the world and everyone in it, ain't nothing to it, Tumblr logic made me it.

Well it's the fear of being judged at the moment it's because i've put on 2 stone which makes me look really ugly and fat i don't want to be seen by people i know because they'll get shocked how fat i've gotten and it's embarrassing. Usually it's because i'm constantly worried people HATE me i feel like i don't have much in common with the typical girl e.g. talking about make up and hot guys etc. i feel so out of place and don't know what to say. I also feel like people are constantly staring at me which makes me self concious and i have a low self esteem too. So when people stare at me i'm thinking what have i done wrong? is there something on my face have i said something wrong i'm always on the edge of my seat when going out and then i have to keep reminding myself that no one is looking at me people are just going about their own business as you see many things ..
