      Never ever

      Progressive overload. Start with small talk with service workers, work your way up to cold approaching strangers.

      Been working on it and can talk and function but I don't know how to flirt/escalate a conversation like a normal person. Was a Chipotle the other day and there was this beautiful girl behind the counter (around my age) and I didn't say much apart from the usual and kinda froze up

    I've been where you are, and I'm going to be very blunt with you. If you don't want some crass, possibly rude words, ignore the rest of my post.

    Stop the ****ing self-pity.

    Your self-worth in life isn't based on what you have or what you look like. Humans aren't flowers, nobody respects you because of the shape of your god damn jawline. Nobody gives a damn if you're a genius. Nobody gives a flying f*ck if you're talented. Nobody gives a crap if you're rich.

    You're respected based on what you do with what you've been given. Do you think anyone respects Mitt Romney more than Obama because he's rich? Hell no. Do you think people respect Obama because of his good looks? Of course not. Do you think people respect Martin Luther King because he was talented? Do you think people respect Nelson Mandela for his IQ?

    Life is like poker, you're dealt a hand and you work those cards to accomplish whatever you can. Life is about tearing down obstacles, no matter what they are. Stop trying to get attention -- why the **** do you need attention from other people? Why the **** do you care what I think of you? I'm some ****ing douchebag that goes home and masterbates to midget porn just like the rest of these degenerates. I'm not special. Stop giving a **** what I, or anybody around you think. I'm nothing. This is your life, so live it how YOU want to live it.

    Life isn't about impressing other people. You don't need good looks, or money, or genius or talent to have a good life. Be kind, be compassionate, be hard working, be assertive, and be principled. Then I'll respect you. I don't give a **** about anything else.

    Now stop ****ing feeling sorry for yourself. Every time you cry you're reinforcing that there's something wrong with you. Get up off your ass and start building your life. You really want people to respect you? Work harder than everyone around you.

    Stop the self-pity and live your life. You're no worse than anyone else.

    When you see the fattest, ugliest pig on the planet... give her a compliment. Hit on her even if you have no sexual attraction towards her. If you can’t talk and flirt with girls you aren’t attracted to, how do you expect to do it with girls you are attracted to? Use these beasts for practice.

      good advice except the caveat that whatever you do, do NOT frick or validate them.
      You cannot un-frick a hambeast and that shame will sit with you for the rest of your life as it eats away at your sense of self.
      Like they tell movie stars to never take TV roles, if you ever open yourself up to even the possibility of fricking fat chicks, that's who you become. That fat chick fricker. That becomes your 'league' now.

    I've tried every single mental exercise possible to beat my social anxiety and it's still only getting worse.

    Like I can try to pump myself up in the mirror of a bathroom before going to some whatever college class, rationalize to myself in every way possible that literally no one gives a shit and do every mental and breathing exercise possible like widening myself as much as possible with my arms wide open or whatnot and exiting the bathroom telling myself there is no reason to feel this way over and over again, but the moment I touch the door knob and open the class door my heart starts beating like crazy and my head feels like it will explode as if I'm in a near death situation. By the time I sit in my chair I am already sweating like crazy and afraid of the person closest to me literally being able to hear my heart bursting out of my chest because of how much I am stressed in that moment.
    Every time the same exact thing, even though I know it's not rational. At this rate I'll die in my 30s out of nothing but pure stress and anxiety.

      this one's ez, exposure therapy.
      Don't even give yourself the opportunity to rest and think about it or hype yourself up. Constantly be in the presence of someone else interacting with them as much as you can.
      I hope you live in a dorm with roommate(s).
      Your body will adapt long before it kills you from heart explosion or whatever you think will happen.

    single out every negative thought you have and attack it with violent positive aggression as soon as it appears.

    Also look into the concept of 'frame' from red-pill. Even if you're not into that shit, frame specifically is an incredibly good piece of insight irrespective of trying to get laid or whatever.

    You need to warm up your social skills every morning. If you live with someone such as a housemate or your parents, talk to them in the mornings even if it's small. Then say hi to people who are paid to talk to you such as waiters or cashiers at coffee shops, then make some very brief small talk about literally anything at all. Then keep repeating it and try to watch and read funny things to develop a sense of humor. Eventually in the same manner warm up your humor every day by being a bit funny, don't try too hard to be funny just do it when it fits in. Rinse and repeat endlessly until it feels normal and you aren't shy anymore.

    >The beginning of a longer term fix
    Start with mental house cleaning. Try this. It works surprisingly well.
    The Silva Method had a simple technique where you tell yourself "cancel, cancel" whenever you notice an unwanted thought creep in.

    - 31:45 :: Mental Housecleaning
    - 33:13 :: "Cancel, cancel."
    - 34:08 :: "Better and better."

    The rest is up to you, but getting the bad ideas you have about yourself out of your mind and keeping them out is a good first step.

    You just have to practice. Yeah you're going to fail, just how I'm sure you probably failed a set, or picked up some DB's that were too heavy, or hurt your shoulder doing an exercise wrong. But you examine what went wrong, push through and keep going. It's not like there is some other alternative, some magic cheat code or supplement you can take to totally change your personality.

    The Macho Man Randy Savage wasn't always so macho, no, as a matter of fact, his little brother was talking about how The Macho Man used to think he wouldn't make it, yeah, he didn't think he could talk the talk, he didn't know what he could do, but then his brother told him he should talk like the best talkers he knew, YEAH, and that's how The Macho Man was born, man.

    He practiced in front of a mirror for three months, and what do you know, he became he the most arresting speaker of his generation, if not of all time.
