Hey, I’m 20 years old too, and a female. I have social anxiety along with depression too. I want to say that you’re not alone with this. I’m getting down a lot too. I talked to therapists, even a doctor who claimed that "Lexapro"(social anxiety pills) and other pills have been helping her. I took Lexapro, they worked for me for only two years until I graduated from high school when I was 18…and then they just stopped working. I’m still living with my parents, and I have NO friends. We move around way too much…and even though I can get out of the house I also have panic attacks. I have low esteem too, and have a hard time talking with people. All I can say is don’t kill yourself. It’s not worth it, think about your family that will be hurt to see you’re gone. Also you could ask your family or someone who really cares so much about you to help you get out of the house step by step. You don’t have to go anywhere TOO big with lots of people. Like maybe you can go to a small family store with your family and try to get used to people from there.(You don’t have to do that if you don’t want to) It’s hard for me to do that at times too, but it’s a start to get used to people. But yeah, pills won’t always help with social anxiety or depression. Sometimes it makes it much worse…because I’m experiencing horrible withdrawals since I stopped taking Lexapro. But yeah I understand your pain. I’m trying to get through this too.
