I don't know if it was depression from a clinical standpoint, but I did become numb to everything. I was socially anxious and was afraid to talk. Luckily I was never bullied because of it, and I could...

I did a hernia surgery 6 days ago, since that I wasn't in mood for nothing, I intend to continue listenning that and do some of these exercises that push you out of your confort zone, althought they s...

Call and hang up. Call and say hello and hang up. Call and say hello and ask them when they close… Etc… The point is to desensitize you to phones and talking. The phone, and fear of it, was the singl...
