I have been visiting a psychiatrist for many years and have been too stupid to follow instruction and taking their meds for many years.
I don’t want to reveal my diagnosis but here is what I am seriously facing and making me low in confidence every time.

Whenever I went out with people to socialize and do things together ,I get very anxious and end up very quiet and not feeling well.This is very true when I meet my cousin or Aunty,I am very nervous around them socially and feel they don’t like me.Nowadays in my workplace I sometimes feel my colleague disliked me too,it made my work harder and I tend to start worrying.

Yesterday was very sad,I went out with my newly met GF and I connect badly with her socially.My mind was thinking that she will break up with me soon after seeing me in such a dysfunctional state.I don’t want to take the psych meds anymore,it’s not that helpful afterall. I am sad that I can’t live without tension or worrys

Hey you!

I just replied to your other thread, so do check it out when you have the time. smile.gif

Now, this is just me, drawing preliminary clues, and based on your post from this thread and the other, so correct me if I am wrong but it seems that not only are you an introvert person but you are quite the perfectionist too. hmm.gif

Is there a desire within you that wants all things to be right, and that the slightest mishap can knock your balance off?

Tell me, are you a September baby? If you feel uncomfortable answering this question, then you do not have to or if you prefer, you can PM me. I am all ears, buddy. thumbsup.gif

If you do not mind me asking, has there ever been a social situation where you actually felt happy and comfortable and you look forward to such social gathering again, with the same people, in the near future? smile.gif

Aha! I was right about the September baby part. nod.gif

No, it was not any of Lilian Too’s book that got me to ask you that question but rather, it is my own keen observation on people, their behavior, their choice of words and their description of their lifestyle, that made me put clues together on their birth month, buddy. smile.gif

In case if anyone of you ever wondering, no, I would not be able to put my finger on one’s birth date because that is just nigh-imposisble … or is it? I will try to work on that. Haha. laugh.gif

Now that you have given us some glimpse on your lifestyle, which is you spending most of your waking hours at the office, let’s take it from there, shall we? brows.gif

Ok, my apologies, I will need to postpone my reply because it is boarding time for me now. sad.gif

On the subject of communication, I like to share a little secret with you, and this might surprise you, so here we go:

No one knows how scared you are, inside, unless it is projected on the outside … meaning, like a goose, that looks so calm on the surface but beneath the water, their freaking feet is paddling away like crazy, just so to keep themselves look elegant and composed, so that others only see what they want others to see, and you are just 2 steps from being like that goose, figuratively speaking thumbsup.gif

Ok, now I really got to go, buddy! smile.gif
