It's all or nothing

I feel like I figured out one reason why I have always been single. Besides the fact I fall for someone who never feels the same way, I have anxiety talking to others. It’s weird because I can easily make friends. I’m well liked by others (I think). Another issue is, even though I complain about feeling lonely and wanting to be with someone, I constantly seek solitude. I literally went to the business building to study one of the study rooms because the coffee shop on campus had a bunch of people.

How can I be happy when I’m so set on making myself miserable?

You open up pretty well on here. Maybe try meeting people of the opposite sex online for a while until you build confidence.

Any insight as to the cause of your anxiety? If not, then a little therapy probably won’t hurt.

I don’t know why I get anxiety. I’ll try to talk to women online. Maybe it will help.

You are a psych major. Try going to a therapist. Consider it an educational expense. You are a vet. Go to the VA. Maybe they will prescribe marijuana.

I may talk to someone at the VA. I may not be able to get marijuana prescribed. Mainly due to the fact that I applied for a concealed weapon’s permit. My school has a counseling center, but I am wary of them.

I too am wary. And I do not want to be labeled. The best counselor is a good friend.

Hi cpat, I think you made good choice to study. I'm no scholar but maybe include fun time in your schedule. Is there a comedy zone with onstage comedians. Someone commented you're in a major. If you are working towards a big job then is there other, clusters are what they used to be called. In other words maybe you can enjoy hooking up with whom could be coworkers if you seek a couple different places. Sometimes job burn out or need for flexible workers or technology emerges happens.

Stop the bleeding protect the wound treat for shock.

Aside from that pop an 800 Motrin and go run three miles should be all good.

I believe someone high on MJ is far less likely to harm another person. MJ should be required for gun owners.

I was like that when I was younger
The answer is simple; you probably don't have much in common with most of them
(and often times that is a good thing)

I think social media gives a good demonstration of the society around you
Post a topic (not here; but in a less progressive and mainstream area like a board on Facebook) and count how many people bash you in it
Then count how many people actually have something constructive to share back
This is your odds everywhere you go in public.

Most people are only programmed to persecute and crucify; as a Christian that should've been one of your first lessons.
