I might soon get external help to also see if I have social anxiety.
But I do show allot of signs and going to the gym alone (have nobody to go with right now) is scary and makes me very nervous
Also I havent gone to the gym in like an month I dont know why I wanna go to the gym or just at home but for some reason I cant get into it again

I also dont feel comfortable going to a public gym. Either go to a private one or do home workouts

Just fucking go to the gym and fuck everybody else, go fucking train, also u can ignore interacting with people as much as u can if u have sever social anxiety. A replaceable could be ordering some dumbbells and working out with them or/and doing calisthenics. :feelsautistic:

Go at times where there’s no people /staff

Also literally no one cares about you unless you’re a girl or incredibly gl you’re invisible not just in the gym but everywhere

Just go even if it feels shit it took me a couple sessions to realise that no one there gives a shit about your presence even if people had already told me that before

yeah thats why i usually go at late hours there aren't many ppl and u can do or try any workout u want without being judged and if ur lucky enough to have a 24h gym near by then you're all good

I was the same, just force yourself to go by putting it in your schedule and after like 2 months youll be significantly more confident
