I've been single for most of my life. I've been working hard on myself and like to think that I've made a lot of improvements both of my health and in my personality. I still can't seem to get dates or get into a relationship. I've never had sex. I am so angry and it's too hard for me to keep trying. The idea that I could have a romantic relationship that I'm excited about seems impossible to me.

I'm assuming that you've been to therapy? You might also consider hiring an image coach. And my personal suggestion, that you consider S€x therapy or s€x workers. Sometimes new experiences are what changes our internal thoughts and external demeanor and that can make all the difference to how others perceive us!

Dont ever give up hope! People's attitudes about who they want to date change drastically after 30.

I don't really have any more information. I've never done it. There was an episode of GWF with an SW who talks about this form of therapy. It def depends on the state though.

Anyone here have comorbid anxiety and/or depression? How did you know, and how do you manage it now? I think I might be struggling with one or both and I’m trying to figure out how to proceed. Not currently seeing a therapist or medicated, managing based on strategies I learned from an ADHD coach back in college, so at minimum I would need to find a provider, which has been a barrier (cost-wise, finding someone with experience with ADHD, etc.)
