i'll try to keep this short. I'm 20, and everyday has been in constant repeat since high school ended. Computer, gym, class at my local community college. I'm so sick of it it's so depressing. I have no friends , never had a girlfriend in my life. I hate my life it's so depressing , i have no reason to go through each day. I have nothing to look forward to and i feel so isolated all the time.I'm a good looking guy and there is nothing wrong with me except the fact i have social anxiety disorder . Even if i didn't making friends at my local college would be a challenge because class is not really a good place to socialize , everyone is on there cell phone if the teacher isn't teaching and there are no clubs at my college. I'm thinking of transferring to a 4 year university. I tried transferring once before but ended up coming home after 2 days cause i felt so alone, not knowing anyone and i didn't know how to make friends. Everyone was already forming groups of friendship and i was alone... I've tried fighting my social anxiety but it's not something i can overcome completely . Do you think transferring to a 4 year college and joining some clubs will fill my loneliness...

1. Yes. Something seems to be missing. But it is not clear. It is subtle or invisible from here. It may hidden there only. Without proper verification, it is difficult for me to guess.



2. Yes. Your last idea is good. I also agree with this proposal. Please try.

If it makes you feel relaxed & helps you with your anxiety then yes join a club or an activity. I know how you feel, I suffer from nervousness & I don't really like hanging around people so I just sit in my house doing chores & watching tv & even since high school I kept on doing the same thing which kept me by not joining clubs or date or make friends:(

You can transfer or you get a smart phone with wifi or internet to keep you happy. I recommend dating sites like OkCupid.com they also have on app for android and apple devices

probably not. I would say go to the gym or find some kind of a club where other people have similar interests as you do.

Try talking to people after class. I'm sure that there is at least 1 person not on their phone. Good luck! :)
