Hi, I have a wonderfully supportive husband, two pretty great kids, a secure job (which in this day and age I should be grateful for) and friends I have had for years...so whats the problem, why are you moaning I hear you say - its just that I don't recognise myself anymore, I was confident, outgoing, made friends instantaneously with strangers and never worried about meeting new people! However now I am forever second guessing myself and worrying that people won't find me interesting and getting tongue tied when meeting new people and never knowing what to say - I hate social events and dread meeting new people - I do suffer from depression but I watch other people mingling and they make it look so easy whereby I am trying desperately to think of things to say when I see people approaching even with my closest friends I feel that I have nothing to contribute to conversations - I just want to be me again and I really don't know how to be me again - sorry to waffle on but I really am at a loss as what to do!
