Hello, I am 24 year male who has no friends, no gf and no desire to socialize. I spend the day infront the computer working and when i come home i dont go out to meet people, instead i sit infront of the computer again. The only thing that gives me any joy is the work i do (programmer/ no cosial interactions). Sometimes i get in mid depression levels. I am very aware on a logical level for my problems, but i cant seem to apply any corrections to my behavior. In my mind this was only a phase of my life for some time, but as years pass by i realize that i have to find a way to selfimprove, so if you have some knowledge of selfhelp tacticks or exercises/book that i can try i am open to hear them. I am not considering therapy for now. Thanks in advance.

You might read up on Avoidant personality disorder. Also, if you feel unskilled in communicating with others, there are many books available on public speaking, making friends, getting along with others. If you do not want to commit to therapy right now (it is actually very helpful), you would find just reading about these topics interesting and helpful.
You might also consider befriending others who share your interests--either in real life (preferably) or over the internet. It's good to have some friends. You don't need to party every night, but to have a friend to interact with is a very nice thing. Avoidant Personality Disorder Symptoms | Psych Central |
