Shit No One Cares About My social anxiety is so bad I don't ever want to date or whatever. I just want to NEET and LDAR.

For reference I bought the NIV translation. I am not sure about what the different translations correlate to @baqqrih

But I thought about just buying it because of the strong feelings I had today.
That's a very good one for starting out. NIV makes a good balance between translating how the words themselves were written while also defining the actual thought and meaning of the words. It's good for introducing core concepts of the faith to new believers, so it's a great choice.
Maybe this was really a sign for me to look to a higher power. I've always been intrigued by Christ himself for some unbeknownst reason.


I unfortunately have no idea but I have some time right now dedicated to researching the scripture. Do you have any points for me to base my research on?
I'd say one of the Gospels would be the best to start out with, since they are actual, specific accounts of Jesus' life. I'd personally recommend the Gospel of John to start with, as John's writing particularly speaks of Jesus' divinity and His significance in God's plan for us, so it can help introduce you to Jesus' overall identity.

That's great to hear!

I see , so the scriptures are sort of just bundles of stories and concepts? There is no specific order to it?

Also I will start reading on that before I go to bed today. Thanks man.

There's certainly order to it, not always chronologically, but enough to group events together, so Genesis, the first book, details the creation of the Earth and the development of the first civilizations, for example. The entire Old Testament details events and prophecies from before Jesus' life, while the New Testament, where the Gospels start, are where Jesus' life is then detailed, and, following His death and resurrection, the development of the church and the events of the spread of the Gospel by the Apostles are also recorded, alongside divine encounters with God that people like Paul the Apostle faced.

Start with the Book of Job
 
In my experience, vrilpower is stronger than anxiety. I would suggest that you try to push yourself to the limit more, get angry if you have to.
 
Start with the Book of Job
That's a more intricate book for a beginner to start out with, but that'd certainly also help him to understand God's will better once he has the basic understanding of Biblical history and concepts like covenants, God's justice, and so on.
@n9wiff The Book of Job is an Old Testament book that tells the story of the life of a righteous man named Job (the "o" in his name is pronounced like in the word "row") who maintained his faith in The Lord and persevered through the despair and suffering he felt even after Satan struck him with terrible tragedies in life. It also reminds us that, as humans, since we are in God's universe, He sets the rules and wills things to happen, even if those things, like the tragedies Job faced, aren't what we'd think would carry on God's eventual plan to return and rid the world of sin, as God's logic can sometimes transcend the feeble, human logic that our minds can comprehend.

God fucked up Job's life for no reason and killed all his sons just to prove the devil wrong doe

God is not the one who killed his sons or "ruined his life" directly. God willed those things to happen, because God ordains all things to happen, the greatest things and the worst things, but He did not carry the evil out by His own actions. I believe you to be a reprobate and a denier of the Holy Spirit, as your past thoughts about Christ have previously shown, so I can't expect you to understand these concepts, but, to keep it simple, we don't need to understand every little thing, because trusting in The Creator and knowing that He loves us and has a plan for us should make us then trust that His will, being divine and having already blessed us with life, the possession of a soul, and a promise to eventual eternal life after we perish on this Earth should give us comfort in knowing that His plan is therefore perfect, no matter our level of comprehension.

So what the Book of Job is really saying is... trvst the plqn?
 
Can't even order food without my heart racing.

Can't even go into VC with my own high-school friends on the Discord

Can't even collect food delivery, tell the guy to leave it on the pillar, wait till he's gone, then get it like a retard.

I don't want to shoot for success. I don't want to get married because I'll probably piss myself on that day. I just want to stay at home, work minimum wage and live off rotting. I CBA with life anymore.

It's fucking over. I am talentless and low IQ as fuck too, can't do well in academics or whatever. I'll cope with getting a degree to make sure I have some sort of qualification and then see what I can do from there.
You are the one to blame yourself for all this.
Man up man, noone will help you, your parents can only do so much. And complaining here will make you a loser here too.
 
Honestly I think I might actually consider suicide if I had social anxiety. Being social is all I have, I love being sociable. I'm glad I just have regular anxiety.
 
I am not religious but I did a buy a Bible today.

I also coincidentally was thinking about the existence of some greater force while I was eating. I just though the idea of everything happening to lead to my consciousness is so crazy and coincidental to form such a beautiful but ruthless illusion controlled by hormones, neuro-chemistry and vain attachments.

Truly something else. I had this thought while eating a medium rare steak and I just stopped chewing and stared at my fork for a few minutes I think.

So self aware yet I can't just control myself into feeling better, brutal innit?
The bible can give you advice and following God's word and the laws of the bible definetly helps with life, how to treat people, how to interact with them, how to live life, relationship issues (Actually a lot.) and so on. But you must also become a more social person yourself, i know it is scary to think that maybe you can fail and become a laughing stock of wherever you try to find friends in but that usually doesn't happen, majority of people are decent.
