First of all I would like to say thank you to everyone. I first found this forum around 2007. I was very depressed at the time also suffering from anxiety attacks. Somehow I was watching tv and I saw the first season of the pick up artist. I thought it had to be staged. There is no way people can pull women so easily when I have an anxiety attack from making eye contact with a girl. So I decided to google pick up artist forum and found this site. Fast forward 7 years to 2014. I look back on those days of emptiness and self loathing it seems a distant nightmare. I just want to thank everyone for saving my life. I am 22 now about to be 23 in September.
