I am suffering from some sort of depression and anxiety. I always try to meet and talk new people but whenever I come across with new pals I feels some sort of anxiety while in conversation my heart rate goes high something like I am giving an interviews. This things get me into depression. I am not a people person this makes me more introvert. I sometime keep on thinking about this and it makes me feels dull n disappointed. I am trying this to overcome this but nothing is going good.in recent months this seclusion makes me to talk with myself .something like talking with me in brain. This is one of the real trouble.

Hi, I can understand how you feel. What you are expecting sounds like social anxiety though you would need a formal diagnosis from a psychiatrist. When you are socially anxious, you don't feel comfortable in the company of people and social social situations can become uncomfortable. This is possibly what is making you aloof and lonely. If you are an introvert then that also can be part of the reason for the lack of connection with people. I would suggest that you try some hypnotherapy for this. Also, writing down how you feel in a daily journal or diary will really help. Having a conversation with yourself in your mind is just a by product of all the thoughts you have, the anxiety you feel, this is also part of the social anxiety bit. Pls try some deep breathing and consulting a counsellor or psychologist. You can connect with me as well. Hope you feel better soon.
