Ive suffered with debilitating anxiety my entire life and this movie really resonated with me. In my opinion it is the best on screen representation of GAD I've ever seen (although it's rarely represented in movies). I know a ton of people hate it because "it doesn't make sense" but it lined up with my life in ways that made me pause the movie multiple times to process my thoughts.

I've seen the movie once and never plan on watching it again because it really messed me up.

Apologies if this doesn't resonate with some people but I thought I'd get it out there to see if anybody feels the same way.

I just wanted to know how you all interpreted the film. This movie really hit home with me and no other movie has made me as uncomfortable as this one. It's hard to describe.

For some context I'm a 24 year old male and have never dated. All of my friends are either actively dating, have dated before or are engaged, some of whom are a few years younger than me.

I don't know if it's because I'm the odd one out in the group or the peer pressure but it's started to dawn on me that I may have missed my chance to even begin. I also understand that it's a massive red flag to most women that a dude in his mid 20s has never dated.

I don't know what it is about me that makes me inherently unlikable to women either. I can hold conversations with them just fine and I'm even friends with a couple of my friends GFs/wives. On top of that I have hobbies, a full time job and live on my own. The only problems I can think of is I'm somewhat average looking and kinda short (5'9").

At this point I feel like im screwed if I even want to try putting myself out there. I'm kinda over the whole bar/club scene aswell so I don't even know where to meet someone to begin with.

Should I call it quits? I don't know what to do.
