I'm at this point where I'm desperately trying to step out of my comfort zone & trying to connect with others & expand my consciousness & it just seems everywhere I turn I'm being rejected. I don't know how much I can take right now. Please, I really need support & nowhere to turn. I just need some kind words. So stripped of energy & being broken down from all sides & I'm just falling apart.

It's okay. Everything's going to be just fine. We're all in this together.

There there, it's gonna be alright. Life is tough for us all, but you have to take the rainy days before you can appreciate the sunny days. We are a family here, first and foremost.

For many of us there is simply no future and no hope. It's not so bad, your situation is not unique. My strategy has been learn to live well enough alone. I know I will be alone and not have any real friends, that is reality. Find the advantages. This blog may help. There are books written by introverts for introverts too. I don't believe that consciousness is something that expands. Tripping is about having a good time. Just my opinion.

Don't push yourself too hard. Put you first. Do things you like, don't be afraid to stick up for yourself when people are manipulating you into doing things you don't like.
Accept yourself, that is really all that matters. in the meantime tho, here ya go

its in the most difficult of times where we stand to benefit the most.
stepping outside of your comfort zone should be uncomfortable. and im not surprised youre being rejected. if you immediately step outside of your comfort zone and everything starts going your way, where the does the opportunity to grow/learn come in?
life is about practice. we don't become experts overnight (or ever for that matter, but you know what im saying). life is gonna suck, and its gonna be hard, and youre probably gonna get rejected a lot more, but every experience in life is a lesson.
youll be okay man. I promise. youre exactly where youre supposed to be right now. just keep on doing what youre doing and in time, itll get easier.

Slow and steady, good chum. Take it one day at a time. Moving from introversion to extroversion overnight will cause a great deal of stress. It's good to push yourself outside of your comfort zone every now and again (especially if it's social anxiety you are trying to overcome), but you have to respect that it's going to be two steps forward, one step back. There are billions of people out there and probably more different types of in-groups to experiment with. Give them each their due attention, but don't get too attached if things don't work out.
Post more online. I find that using this place as a social outlet warms me up for real life interactions. Working in customer service helps too. I got a job doing door to door sales when I was in college to break my profound social anxiety/agoraphobia. I just took it one door at a time, but I failed a LOT. there was always another one waiting though, so pick myself up, dust myself off, and try again, right?
