bottle (confidence),
i'm 24 and ive always been a really, really confident person….but my confidence as totally gone, when i used to go out drinking, i wasn't scared of anyone!
i know i might sound an ar55 here (i am really not), but i can handle myself went karate for 7 years and every bit of trouble ive had I have always been okay, i also could go out and talk to anyone who I don’t even know about anything.
but recently a few months ago, a group of lads jumped me (for something that happened agers ago with 1 of them), i ended up being knocked out and suffered a broken nose.
now my confidence as totally gone, it feels like something as gone from me! - i don't know but i think when your sure of yourself and somebody knocks your confidence you feel weak and thats how i feel.
its not just when i go out clubbing, but when i'm speaking to someone at work or in the street i feel like they are above me, even my confidence around women as gone…whats happenened?

It is understandable that your confidence has taken a bit of a knock at the moment. But you WILL get it back. This is part of life I'm afraid. There is a saying that goes: When you fall of the bike, you have to pick yourself up, brush yourself down, and get right back on that bike again.' You know that you are capable of handling yourself in a fight; but this isnt always enough. This is purely your physical capabilities. Your pride has taken a knock. But you will regain your mental condition in time. I know that it is easy for me to say, but try not to let it get you down my friend. Alot of people have had this same experience as you, including myself. Put it down to a 'life lesson.' So brush yourself down and get right up on that bike again ya hear!!! All the best.

Chin up mate
life is hard and nobody can always win a fight
it takes a stronger man to walk away from 1
but with the skills of fighting you have learnt it could 1 day put you in jail
Just get on with your life
you get older every day !!!!!

You could be suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder - from when your friends jumped you. You need to build your confidence up again.
