I was really bad in the past. At my worst, I wouldn't leave my room for days, sometimes sleep for 16 hours, not eat, and have no human contact for weeks. At my best, I still couldn't make eye contact, couldn't order my own food at a fastfood place, panicked constantly, and otherwise couldn't participate in life at all.
Now, I'm a totally different person. I'm much more honest with myself, and don't fear interactions. While I don't have an engaging social life yet, I'm not afraid to meet people now. I actually enjoy holding small conversations with strangers when I can. So I can only imagine it will get much much better from here.
