I’ve had horrible social anxiety since I was a little girl, but it’s gotten worse over the past two years. I had close friends and all, but now I’m basically alone. The only two people I’m close to are my boyfriend and best friend, who’s his cousin. This year, my senior year, has been the loneliest of my life. The more people I distance myself from, the more isolated I feel. I have no close girlfriends, which is extremely lonely, and I’m terrified of getting close to people, since whenever I put my trust in people, they just screw me over. I have no idea what to do about my social anxiety. I’m seeing a therapist for depression, but he doesn’t seem to recognize the social anxiety problems that I have.
