But you don’t find it tedious to talk to people you just said you need reddit to talk to people. You’re talking to people right now. I’m a people.
How are you going to develop those skills of patience and conversing by avoiding it outside of obligations? Like what kind of medicine do you think you’re going to take that will just make it go away and that you’ll never have the problem again?
This shit is a process, speaking from experience. It’s not going to be comfortable for a while, no matter what meds you’re on or what CBT you go through. CBT will just have you practice talking to people. They’re going to tell you to touch grass. The meds will manage the physical symptoms of anxiety, but it doesn’t make anxiety go away.
I just don’t know what you think needs to happen before you’re ready to confront this issue. You’re never going to be ready. So get that idea out of your head right now. And it’ll probably never go away completely. So you either move or just stew in a dark room the rest of your life which will 100% make your condition worse (again, speaking from experience).
The real argument here isn’t that you can’t use reddit. The real argument is shooting down the idea that you can only socialize online or you’ll die. That’s the real thing separating you from people.
Also, who cares what we say? You’re not actually beholden to our opinion.
