I have been on job seekers allowance for a while now but its been making me feel worse and worse because id avoid actually applying for anything I thought id get because I couldnt cope going to the interviews and things like that because talking to people gives me panic attacks, so recently I decided I couldnt do it anymore but I cant exactly go without the money and id been thinking for a long time id like to go self employed selling my art and crafts online so I decided why not? It means I can do what I love and not have to talk to people I dont want to. I recently finished my business plan but its taken longer than I thought it would through having to do meetings with this guy whose helping me but the stresses and worries that people wont buy my stuff or that it just plain wont work are really starting to get to me and I still need to find a grant to help me start I just keep freaking out and I keep feeling like giving up
