I have a near-crippling fear of failure, to the point where I don't try anything or go out. At this point, I'm a shut-in who just watches TV all day because I'm too afraid that, if I follow my passions, then I'll fail and all that effort would have been for naught. It's even gotten to the point where this one places wants to interview me for potential employment and I don't want to do it because my head says "what if you hate the job"
It's the first place that's offered an interview since graduation

I've already been to therapy and medication, though that was to make me stop wanting to kill my damn self.

Stop being a bitch and just go do the interview. If you won't change now when will you?

you can do it. (interview)

You will fail. Move on.

Okay this guy triggered me. Don't listen to this shit poster. Go to the interview and try it. It is better than being in your current situation (jobless). A career could provide structure and possibly happiness. Whenever I'm stressed or unhappy I watch Iron Man (2008). Maybe watch your favorite film before going to the interview. Best of luck anon.

Go to the interview. You know what you do if you hate the job? You stick around a year for the experience or you quit. It's literally that easy. There's no point in not doing things for fear of failure, because then you'll have no life experiences. Failure also helps you go.

>Failure also helps you go.
Oops.
>Failure also helps you grow.

Medication is the worst shit there is
Therapy is not a problem solver
It's a tool to help you rebuild yourself faster
I'm guessing that since you have fear of failure it is followed by depression
That's what I've been dealing with

What I do is I try psychedelics
In the right setting, time and surrounding I can learn lessons which would cost me months of theraphy and hard work
I mostly go for shrooms because they make me feel more connected to nature and other people
