Right, so don't dwell on specific physiological problems you might be having, you end up simply perpetuating them. Which always seemed to be counter to the philosophy of admitting you have a problem. It is confusing.
Instead, focus on and dwell on the solutions.
So for me I am missing a lot of life skills, it is embarrassing at 29 but I just believed that I would be taught everything I need to know in my childhood. Not the case, in fact schools should really get kids to practice things like being social and team work and staying organized. I don't think school has taught me anything of use other than reading, writing and basic arithmetic. But that's another conversation.
My solutions are:
social skills
organizational skills
do yoga + a sport. (it's cheaper than the gym)
umm, that might be it really... wow that's a small list. I think that once I put these into practice all the bad stuff will melt away, and when that happens, I will become a positive person and in turn become approachable to others
There might be work classes on meetup.com if not I might try searching for something that deals with this specially. I am a bit of a mess to be honest. I got comfortable stating last year and even got excited discovering youtubers, but ended up just procrastinating, so I hope when i have my week planned and I'm used to following it, I won't worry about motivation anymore. And when I think of socialising as a skill set that I can learn instead of something of a natural given then it's something I can get good at and in turn my anxiety + depression will fade. Cos that's the really big one.
I think coping with stress isn't really a skill, but the less negativity you have in your head holding you back the better you're ability to cope.
So to sum up. Learn stuff I should have known years ago, then join clubs. 1 step at a time. Plus keep a journal of my journey. It may help someone someday
