    Social Anxiety, Severe Insecurity and Avoidant Personality Disorder due to family?

    I watched a video on YouTube by Psych2Go called 10 Signs Your Parents are Making You Depressed after I got home from dropping off my insulting mom at her building. I am 49, and she still can make me feel like crap. When I watched the video I knew it was true in my life and this is what I...

    Hello! Feeling a bit unsure of myself

    Hi everyone! My therapist of one year suggested that I might have Aspergers a couple days ago and after doing some research I think she might be right. Ever since then I have been feeling like I don't know who I am anymore, even though obviously nothing has changed. I have been diagnosed and...

    Beauty insecurity?

    Hey, I get worried a lot of the time about whether I am perceived as beautiful/conventionally attractive.
