    Hang in there until you get that help from the doctor. That's change, something new. Things could get easier, or at least easier to deal with.
    How do you cope with working? Im about to enter the work force and im scared out of my mind.

    You are correct, Im just worried about the social component. I worked two jobs in the past and i experienced terrible anxiety that got in the way of my duties. I am fearful that this might happen again.

    @cornman What have you learned through those experiences that can help you in further job situations?

    I honestly just grit and bear it. I hate it but if I don’t work, I will be broke.
    I wish my actual journey would begin.

    You're on it now. It started about 33 years ago. P.S. The future is not a destination; it's a direction.
    I got up to take out the trash but my stepdad still went ahead and did it anyway.

    I wish my life was like Raymond Watts’s.

    I enjoy his music. He also gets to make it his life.

    That’s sad to hear about the person who won’t commit to you.

    PIG? Never heard of the guy till now. And I'm British.

    " <PÎG> is Raymond Watts, a British musician whose brand of electronic rock is danceable and deadly serious in turn. Watts's words spring from the well of gallows humour in a world of corruscating cruelty and truth. <PÎG> climbs peaks and mines troughs, and musical genres slide and collide like tectonic plates. "

    Before PIG, he was a vocalist for KMFDM and has since been an intermittent member for them. He’s also a big influence on Trent Reznor and Marilyn Manson.
    I thought I was going to have an appointment today.

    Why'd you think you had an appointment some place? What led you to believe that?

    I may have misheard 13 as 18 or my mind thought it was that number due to me having dyscalculia.

    When I talk to a person on the phone and a date for an appointment is the reason for the call, I ask that person to not hang up
    until I go over and mark the correct time and day on the calendar. I say again the time and day, for the person to verify. Then we're done with the call, after I've marked it on the calendar.
    I feel like everyone else can get into a romantic relationship whenever they want but I have all these obstacles that interfere with me.
    How can I take charge of my life?

    LIke your example of distancing yourself from prior threads you started--"if I get a notification I'll click unwatch." That right there is you taking charge of a little thing at a time. Whatever you are doing, keep it up! It's gonna be hard work but it's YOUR work & you are brave enough to do it.

    Also you are honest. That bit above--"Had no idea I would have to put in effort" -- That right there is what separates the men from the boys. You saying that is the No. 1 best thing you can do for yourself right now; you figured out something that many people never, ever do!

    take action and stop ruminating
    I don’t plan on posting in my old threads anymore. I will hit unwatch whenever I get a notification about them.

    I feel like they’ve either run their course or they have posts I don’t like so I don’t want to see them anymore.
    I don’t want to give up my dream of having a romantic partner.

    I really didn’t know there was any other way to express the feeling.

    Language is a useful thing for self expression. Some ways can be more useful than others.

    I’ve always had rough expressions presented to me in regards to achieving goals.
    I need to get out of the house.

    What do you mean? For a walk? Or move to live somewhere else?

    I needed a walk and some fresh air.

    Then go do that. Its a good idea, I try to do it everyday but im only like %50 consitant with my walks. Any exercise is better then none I guess.
    I don’t play any forum games because I just never think to do so.

    It’s too late now because I gave myself an ultimatum today.

    It sounds like you don't know what the Games on the forum are. You don't have to make a new Thread to play in a Game. Many of them are very easy/take minimal effort.
