My mood is fairly stable. I only wish I'd be less anxious. The anxiety

Social phobia has always sounded like a marketing term to me.

I came in at 89.97% or "very good" but I bet that's low for this
group. A low score and you have trouble motivating and making
decisions ("I really should declutter the apartment"..."I'm
considering having one cold beer, but I really shouldn't".) It's a
good place to start at least.

I bet a mystical experience would do you well. Ever thought of doing
a major drug like ecstacy? People get all bent out of shape with
those kind of suggestions, but you're an a adult and an occasional
recreational experiment is totally justified. You do need to
understand the physical and psychological risks and statistics, but
it's a cost/benefit decision and in your case there's nothing to lose.

I'd love to see your posts on "X":

"My mood is fucking awesome. I'm thinking this is what they call a
moment of clarity. I set the creepy 'pedes free outside and
decluttered the apartment. That took ten minutes. Now I'm off to the
club to get myself laid."
