[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You need a reset, OP. As in, medication for anxiety. Then therapy. I'm not sure that therapy will do its job if you're not medicated for it. Do you have a significant other who can accompany you to your doctor's appointment for the meds? No doctor will refuse you, BTW, but you do need to get a prescription. I got mine with a virtual appointment, but perhaps yours won't want to do that.

Some meds for anxiety might have unwanted side effects. You might have to try several. Maybe none will work. But you owe it to yourself to at least try for several weeks.

You need to fight this because there will come a time when you will really need friends, and know how to communicate with people. Being in good health and able-bodied doesn't last for ever.

If you have autism in addition to your social anxiety, you might never find a ton of joy in socializing with people. But your downward spiral is very concerning, and your goal is to stop yourself from hardening into your recluse status. Which is what you are right now.

Typical on this site - sending advice to reach for meds. Not needed in most cases.

OP you should have an eval with your Dr for hormone changes though. Does dementia run in your blood family?[/quote]
