Anxiety at gym and worried about not seeing results?

[Anonymous]

hi so the past 2-3 years I’ve been trying to lose weight. right now I want to start exercising more as I need to add exercise to my daily routine to help me lose more weight , i love but I can’t go on walks as it’s way too cold and I freeze really badly. I want to sign up for gym, but I have really bad anxiety I have signed up to gym before but not been consistent I just end up sitting in changing rooms to avoid the business and I always end up cancelling my membership due to my severe anxiety , I live in a very small town so everyone uses this gym I see all the local people- everyone I used to go school with, mutual friends etc. I could try going gym before 8am because I genuinely don’t think that many people will be at the gym before 8am especially on weekdays but still I get bad anxiety some times I’m scared people will laugh at me or talk about me to their frisnds. I am sort of chubby and short and not someone that’s social. And I’m also have a fear of failure I’m worried that I won’t see progress within 1-2 months

Well, until you get therapy for what’s going on in your brain you’re never going to achieve that goal. Unless you can find it in yourself to take walks outside, an at home gym or something. But you need to work on your mental health first

Keep thinking all you want. It'll change nothing unless you stop worrying about people.
