Checking in on Your Emotions

I’m feeling fine these days, having optimistic thoughts for now. How are you dealing with everything?

I have a hard time trying to deal with social anxiety. I would rather stay inside instead of dealing with people. I don’t have any friends but every now and then I will try to get close to someone and I start having severe anxiety. Then I just won’t answer their calls and I start avoiding them all together. I don’t know how to stop doing this, is there anyone that can give me some advice?
