In any case what is the man's best answer to such behaviour?

Hi,
I am suffering from this problem since I lost 2 of my family members in the same year. I was a very hardworking and a very ambitious person before that, but now I am completely a different person with lot of social anxiety[with strangers] and I lost confidence. I am going to start working in a high stress environment in 3 months which is very important to get my career in to right direction. I get lot of anxiety when talking to strangers and as a result I donot get what I deserve and tend to over respect others. As a result naturally they take advantage or dominate the situation. Please advise.

I've broken up with a guy that I love to bits.It was not a matter of my choice.It was his mom. I guess he was hurt too but he is showing indifference. His indifference is killing me. I'm overcome by guilt and I can sleep at night. I have nightmares and it hurts me when I see him or think about him.

The thing is I'm falling into depression. But there's something new about this 'depression'. I've always cut myself but this time I'm reduced to forcing myself to vomit. Sometimes I just don't need to force myself.

Everytime I see him talking to a girl,( he is doing this even though we only broke up for like four days and it's blatant)I will feel an sense of anxiety creeping upon me. I just can't breathe and I feel like puking.I always do and I always hide in the toilet.

I feel so guilty.I just don't know what to do. And I'm now constantly suffering from gastric attacks. I know it's stupid and juvenile. But I just can't help it.

So why am I puking?How do I just let him go?

I want to be a doctor but then when I start to move towards that goal I somehow find some reason that I would not make a good one. It is so important to me that I would be good at whatever I choose to do. Some people say to develop an "I dont care" attitude. I cant. I care so much about so many things. Maybe I take too many things seriously. I dont know. Im tired of not realizing my dream. Im afraid to own it, because if I fail at that then its my doing. Im already failing enough classes I shouldnt be afraid of it anymore. Jeeez. Yea I just need some really great advice or a point in the right direction.
