I'm having serious issues leaving my house lately, I get anxious making phone calls and going to the store. I live alone, so the isolation gets to me, I feel like my situation is hopeless, it's only gotten worse as I've gotten older, I'm 25 now, and I don't have a relationship, I don't hang out with friends on a regular basis, it's really depressing me.

I do go to work everyday and I can chat with co-workers even though it makes me a bit anxious, but I come home from work everyday to my house and it's really uncomfortable feeling so isolated. I do try to workout when I can. That is pretty much my life.

Is anyone else here in a similiar position? Or anyone with social anxiety that has lived alone...any advice on how to cope? I wish there was some sort of support group near me, but I doubt there are a lot of social anxiety support groups...probably hard to get people to show up.

Take care.
