20mg is the starting dose.
Only a fool would overdose on paroxetine.
It's against the ethics of medicine to prescribe a medication without proper diagnosis.
Dont ruin the guy's life.
Paroxetine is highly addictive. Speaking from experience.

Social anxiety disorder.
Buy paroxetine 20mg and watch your life change.
You want to add drug addiction to his problem.

I have had a chat with my pastor, he couldn't help much. He mostly recommended I take on more responsibilities in church.
Forget pastors, you are not contributing money to his church, you are of no importance to him.
Start from jogging, don't jog alone.
Smile and greet people around.
If you get money, move to another environment, and get a new life.

We sound so much alike. Same thought, same experiences.
We just have to believe in God, I have faith that things we definitely turn around for good. I have seen people's life change in split second.

Trust me when you are doing well financially friends we come automatically, though some will be there for the wrong reasons.

I can say I have suffered from depression most of my life. And speaking of life, I have never really had one.

I grew up in a strict family background, though from a broken home. I can't really say me being the way I am was the fault of my dad due to the fact that my other siblings turned out well.

I'm very quiet to a fault, don't talk much. Always prefer my own company. I always get jealous and feel bad when I see people around me flowing well with each other. I have tried to make friends to no avail.

I have never had a close friend. Although I have had series of romantic entanglements that never seemed to last more than months. My girlfriends always ends up leaving because they feel i don't love them or want them around. Which is most times not the case, I just have trouble expressing my love to them. I stopped dating for more than 8 years now, I have been single since then. I am 30 years old currently, yet I am still single. I have so far lost the courage to even walk up to a girl or maintain a conversation with a girl online.

I'm really depressed. I am all alone. I have no friends, no love. And no close family ties as I'm not close to my siblings. Nobody calls me or chat with me. I'm all alone.

I have no job, never had a job in fact. Graduated since 2014, yet no job. I always flop at the interview stage not for being incompetent but for the inability to express myself coherently. Speaking with people I don't know tends to make me uncomfortable, tense and twitchy. I really don't know what to do. I have mainly survived on freelance jobs online which really doesn't pay much, but enough for my low key lifestyle.

I am highly depressed and lately thoughts of just ending it all has been entering my mind. I have tried various self helps, but nothing seems to be working.

I really need a life, but I just don't know how to go about getting it. First I need advices. I need a job. I need friends, close friends I can mingle with. Friends willing to call and check up on me. Friends to motivate me when I'm down and depressed. Friends to drag me out of my shell and never give up on me.

I need people around me or else I might just get mowed down by depression and end it all. I know most of you here would say suicide is not the solution, yeah I know that...but sometimes it just feels so easy to just let it all go.

Please come to my rescue, I would really hate to follow that path.

P.S I need a job, where I won't be placed on the hot seat at the interview stage. I don't mind the pay. I just want something doing, something that takes me out of the house everyday. A job that keeps me so busy that I don't have the time to entertain suicidal thoughts. A job that gives me the opportunity to meet and mingle with people and with time help me pull out of my shell.

Please if you can help in any way, directly or through recommendations. It would go a long way. I'm Lagos based.
Sammysage, you are great guy! The power to turn around your life lies within you. You overcame several millions of spermatozoa to come into this world.

You got something in you the world is yearning for. You are a child of destiny. When all seems to turn against you-hold on! There's light at the end of the tunnel.

I have had 3 near death experiences. I have been diagnosed with depression and anxiety disorders. I have had sleepless nights for about 6 months. I have suffered terrible losses.

I gave up on life many times. I contemplated suicide. Life was meaningless at a point. I felt left behind among my peers.

I blamed everyone and everything for my woes. The more I did, the deeper I sank in despair. Negativity breeds negativity.

Alas! I looked inward. I took responsibility for my life. I became the captain of life.

I couldn't have done it without God. Turn to Him. Look up onto Jesus Christ. Have a personal relationship with the Holy Spirit. Am speaking from a personal perspective.

Let me leave you with this scripture. Isaiah 41:10. Be strong!

I appreciate and commend the fact u came out of ur zone but sciencely in as much as no man is an island nd u feel the need to ur state is cos partially cos u dont ve friends but bro I tell u its all in ur head.

You think not having friends is bad,but bro having bad friends is worst...so thread carefully,world is an evil place.

U mentioned helping you wit a job...have u heard from fry pan to fire...if u can relate wit ur fellow neighbors nd siblings,u think a boss-staff relationship is easy grin grin ...getting a job and keeping a job are two completely different things......would quickly add u re one tough dude for being without job for years and still surviving..

Conclusion
Dont rush into relationships out of desperation,it wouldnt end well

Start from ur family, go home nd meet up wit ur sibling,get to knw wat dey re doing follow dem out nd introduce ur sef to deir friends.

Come out of ur zone,meet ur neighbour ask,greet dem and ask dem hw work was and hw d labour market is treating dem tell dem abt ur freelance nd hw it has been over d years

Leave women for nw,try nd work on ur sef nd within a year or 2 dey will trip in to marry.

Lastly,ppl are going tru worst dan u re so rather dan thinking a lot abt ur state think on hw to do better.

Peace

You have to redefine and reshuffle what brings happiness for you. No matter how worst broke or ugly a guy is, there's actually someone that will still love you for no reason. except you are one of the dudes that wanna spend to impress or scared to trouble someone's daughter. Stay away from online hookup to avoid people putting your message on "seen" to avoid more depression from "assumed" rejection

You said you need a job that won't need hot interview, Tough fire needs to be passed through to get what you truly want.

You are currently at the age of settling down. Nothing is late.

I'm young and I made my first 500,000 online too, you are on the right path. But you need to link up with people(friends) in your line of interest for more connection and aligned interest. you will have alot to share, learn, and smile on. Life will turn a new shape for you and you won't be depressed no more.

Religion has limitations but Christ has none! I was suicidal as a young undergraduate and later found peace through Christ. All those advocating counseling and Churches have you enquired whether he ever heard and accepted the Gospel? Only one in 100 Churches preach the Gospel today! Church without the Gospel= false religion/hell. What you need OP is salvation by grace through faith without works, because works can never save - Ephesians 2:8&9 If you have this your problems are solved in this world and the next!

You need a real estate agency business job, by the time you go for like 5 inspections in a week hereby meeting clients and other agents and when you close a big money deal that will earn you millions that depression go wake.

As an agent you talk with clients and other agents daily that is the interactions that bring money which is what you need now.

My Siblings don't really have my time again...I have tried several times to reconnect. They don't bother to call back. Same thing with my former classmates. They're too busy to reply my messages. I don't really blame them, cos I wasn't close to any of them back then in school. I have been considering counseling for some time now, but I don't really know how to go about it, as the practice isn't really that common in Nigeria.
Well, you can talk to me, I will counsel you accordingly.
