Hello shygirl2101, you've done really well with your social anxiety, good job! It does sound though that your depression is worse which has made you lose that lust for life. It would be a good idea to talk things through with your doctor and try some medications and psychotherapy can really help.

I'm not currently seeing any mental health professionals. I've been planing to go back to therapy, ever since I left because of economical reasons. I was hoping that I would have enough money with the scholarship I got, but I think I'll have to get a summer job. The only problem is I live in a country that has very high unemployment rate.

It is no bad thing being an observer of life, but in our culture it is not highly valued quality. In fact observation (and listening) and indeed the introversion that is behind being an observer/listener are much more valuable than most realise. But if it makes you uncomfortable or unfulfilled you might wish to seek professional help to see your qualities in the more positive light I am pretty sure they should be seen in.

Introverts are the odd ones where I live also. I've read that in some cultures introversion is more accepted as a personality trait, but I haven't got the finances to travel and to see how it is to live in that kind of environment.
