Hello r/seduction, 18 yr old future PUA, love this community. I'm asking for advice here, I have massive anxiety in public, it has affected my life greatly and it seems to get worse as time goes by. For example, this morning I went to the gym, as soon as I entered the gym, I became overwhelmed with anxiety and kind of lost my balance. It felt like I forgot how to walk, very difficult to explain. I have other symptoms of SA, that are very difficult to deal with, but I still found a way to approach, got blown out and never approached again. That was almost 6 months ago, after that I went out severally but never got the courage to approach.

My plan is to go out consistently and forget about approaching for now, and just be comfortable with strangers and then slowly build courage to start approaching. If you have any other tips please tell me, any advice is much appreciated.

I'm not a person who likes excuses, and I'm in fact the opposite and beat myself up for failures, so I'm not using this as an excuse to not approach, I truly want to get better. I get mocked by family and friends because of my lack of experience with women, I'm also personally dissatisfied with my life and want change.
