Long time lurker. I get the general ideas of not giving a shit, self amusement/having fun, and I see the specific tactical posts shit tests, LMR, etc. But it seems so far from where I currently am. How can someone get started from a position of basically nothing and take baby steps and get the ball rolling?

Literally like going out to a bar by myself knowing no one is too much for me where I am; I know it's sad but I just get so freaked out and I'm so in my head, but I want to get to a point where I'm comfortable doing that eventually.
