Feel bad after everything i do

I've spent the past few years as basically a shut-in due to anxiety disorders and now realise I need to do something with my life. Problem is, every time I go somewhere in public I feel depressed and guilty afterwards for no particular reason, I just want to go back home and hide out there for months until I feel better again. obviously I don't have any friends because of this either, I usually only feel like socialising with a person maybe once and then can't bring myself to talk with them for long periods of time after that and by the time I do they rightfully wouldn't consider me a friend anyway...

    I suffered from anxiety this severe for months before. It is terrible, you feel guilty about every single thing and just worthless. I got over it by researching it as much as I could online. Just knowing what it is, and that those feelings aren't true, took it down alot. I also exercised alot and meditated. When you exercise it gives you endorphins, which will make you happier =) Take some time to do these things and get your nerves back. This will pass.

    I'm half like that... Shut in for over 7 years from anxiety disorders, going out is slightly traumatic for me, makes me want to go home and stay in until I feel brave enough to go out again.

    I find it hard socializing with my family very often, but they're the only people I can talk to due to having no friends.

    Sorry I can't help, if I knew how you could deal with this I think I'd be in a better state XD; I hope you sort it out and feel better sometime soon though.

    I think you think too much. I would just go out anyways and talk to ppl at work or wherever you are.
