Yes, I can relate 110% to what you've said here, @AzulOscuro, and I'm very happy you're making your way forward now.

Self love, self worth, trying to let go of negativity in the heart and mind, these are the things which may help you to grow and perhaps even overcome, once and for all, the difficult path God has selected for you.

I suffer with terrible social anxiety too, perhaps it's AvPD, and I have awful days all the time - including today - so, I know what you mean. It's difficult, yes. Very difficult. I can love myself now though, but I'm finding hard to have love for my fellow man a lot of the time, and I think that's my downfall.

Nature and the joy of animals, help me bounce back from being triggered into lows, though.

I'm happy for you AzulOscuro!

Thank you!
