Hello doctor, I'm feeling depressed & stressed out & I don't feel like mingling in social gatherings, not phobic. Its actually that people don't shy away talking bad about me, in front of me as of which I get hurt. Whatever I do, they find only faults in me & appreciation is far-off the edge. I feel like I'm in some sort of prison. I can't even escape or avoid them. Can you suggest what I must do?
