There's a car park right next to my house I have been going behind the cars so no one can see me when someone sees me I try my hardest to act strong while in my insides I feel like falling to the floor and crying is this a mental issue? When I go into the shop I try to concentrate on getting what I want and stuffing myself with food I try to get every thing really quickly when I get up to the person behind the counter I start slowly start tearing the person normally asks for a bag and then I start feeling faint I say yes normally then I try to push out a thank you then I can't I just walk out feeling like an in polite asshole then I walk back feeling safe because I am eating like really fatty and sugary foods at the moment I am not obese I do not know how though is this normal?

    Depression and severe social anxiety?

    Whatever diagnostic labels could be applied to you, and whatever the causes, it's clear you are not happy with how you're coping with life at the moment.

    Since you posted here, I think you know that what you're going through is not normal. You're not going to get any real help here, though. You need to find the courage to go and talk to a professional counselor or psychiatrist about how you can make your life better.

        Talk to them then. It's a good start.
