Simple walks around the neighbourhood for fresh air I found helped me, but then everyone's neighbourhood is different, air quality, and not to mention, I always went during daylight even as a guy. Safety first

[Ashleywonders]

I shall try. Thank you

Walk safely or even in pairs, cya and best wishes for regaining your confidence. Peace.

Not really besides going out and living life. Whatever you were doing before that you enjoyed, do it again. The more you get out the more comfortable you will be

Thank you

You're very welcome. Join a club or a group that you're interested in, you'll meet new people and be forced to interact with them. A lot of them probably feel exactly the same way you do

Go a little out of your comfot zone. Talk to puke waiting on line at the store when your walking in a part smile day hi. It will slowly open you up like before COVID happened

Long walks are amazing for mental health as is nature. Combine them both and seek out some beauty spots. This will get you out of your comfort zone slowly.

Were you confident before lockdown? If so, it was going out and enjoying yourself that probably made you confident. Therefore, just go out as much as you did before and you will soon get your confidence back, probably without even thinking about it.

I know that it is a little scary but just think of what your life was like two years ago and you don't have to be afraid of the virus anymore.

God the news media really did a number on a lot of people.

Go outside and live your life.

Oh damn I feel like this aswell at times. Maybe slowly ease into like going to the cinema with a friend

Stop being a coward and just go places like you used to.
