I think I hav avoidant personality disorder I tried searching the internet I noticed that I posses all major symptoms of it I can not make friends I always feel that I can not bond with people I do not know cool stuff people know like fashion I daydream being very social, popular loved I have very few friends only my roommate Even my highschool mates am in collage with do not treat me like a friend they treat me like a person they just once knew. I can not comment in watsapp groups unless its just normal stuff like football, funny pics, I just send emojs I can not voice call a girl with my friends around I just go outside first. I always use study staff as an excuse of approaching a girl and I get to talk to her but I fail to keep up with her since I can not talk study staff twenty four seven I always worry of disappointment especially when it comes to socializing. The funny thing is I can not memorize my friends names. But I have improved recently after I got a nice phone so I could post cool photos in my instagram page. But I can not iniciet conversation with a girl ,and am afraid am gona be single till 30 s Am always worried that girls find me weird after all they tag me with ugly girls claiming them to be my future wives. I am easily broken wen people make false comments about me. I am black I min darker than others so most people treat me like a joke. I want to trust my self again and be able to make friends and be cool and updated. PLEASE DO not RECOMMEND A PSYCHIATRIC BECAUSE I CAN NOT AFFORD ANY IF IT SINCE SUCH SERVICES ARE MOSTLY OFFER BY INDIAN DOCTORS IN TANZANIA. THEY CHARGE VERY HIGH .PLEASE TRY YOUR BEST TO TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT TO DO ,RATHER THAN SEEING A PSYCHIATRIC BECAUSE I MAY AFFORD SUCH SERVICES MAYBE AFTER I FIND MY OWN JOB.
