How do you personally fight anxiety and self-doubt? What did it take for you to feel good (or at least comfortable) with yourself?

Stop being a little faggot bitch

I decided i don't have to succeed in my interests, be they comedy, women, music, moviemaking, writing, learning, etc. I just have to do the work in order to do the work. Something a comedian on a podcast taught me. Essentially said, "Don't go to open mics to get famous. Go to the open mics to do well and to fail and to experience the vast chasm between those experiences". That made me okay with just DOING the things i'm interested in and saying fuck you to people who said i had to succeed in them in a specific way. Hope that helps dude. I'm also super fucking depressed so take my dumb advice with a grain of salt.

Honestly working in customer service.
I was a stuttering mess, I couldn't make eye contact, could barely string together a sentence, etc.
I have learned how to convey confidence when I speak just from having to do it so often. If customers sense that you're weak, they'll fuck with you so much harder.

I like swimming because it helps with my anxiety.

I gave myself crippling anxiety and depression by becoming a hermit and not leaving my apartment for 6 months.

These are the things that help me defeat those feelings (over the course of like two years...)

Working out
Eating well (vegetables, fruit, and protein)
Getting a job (forced socialization)

Now I rarely feel like a sperglord.

seconded on the forced socialization tip. I still fucking hate everyone but at least i know how to handle people now without freaking out
