I suffer from both social anxiety and depression. It's like one thing causes another. I start hating myself each and every time I say something stupid or make something weird (or at least I think that was weird) and that's when depression hits me!

Hi there! Thanks for sharing,may you know that you're not alone. If you're like me,you may be your own worst judge.
That said, I find it helps to deal with life by looking at it one day/hour/minute at a time,whatever the case may be so that it's not so overwhelming.
May you know an abundance of grace,peace,comfort and strength!
Blessings to you!
