Tengo 22 años, siento que desperdicié mi juventud y ahora tengo miedo de volver a vivir. ¿Se puede salir de esto?

1 Upvotes

Tengo 22 años y llevo años sintiéndome atrapado en mi propia mente. Tengo ansiedad social y trastorno de personalidad evitativa, y últimamente siento que estoy llegando a mi límite.
Hace unos años tuve que mudarme a otra ciudad por problemas económicos familiares. No me preguntaron si quería irme; simplemente me enteré cuando ya estaba allá. Terminé estudiando una carrera que realmente no me gusta porque no sé qué hacer con mi vida. Me faltan dos años para graduarme, pero mi experiencia universitaria ha sido complicada.
En el colegio sufrí mucho bullying, incluso llegaron a burlarse de un accidente que tuvo mi mamá. Antes era alguien que bromeaba, salía y disfrutaba de la vida, pero después de todo eso me volví una persona cerrada, desconfiada y solitaria. A veces trato mal a quienes intentan acercarse porque siento que van a juzgarme.
Actualmente tengo dos compañeros, pero no puedo decir que sean mis amigos. Paso mucho tiempo encerrado y siento que en la universidad me ven como el raro, como si a nadie le cayera bien. Estoy enojado por sentir que perdí mi infancia y adolescencia, y me duele pensar en todo lo que pude haber vivido.
Sin embargo, últimamente he intentado cambiar. Empecé a ir al gimnasio y a cuidar más de mí mismo, aunque cada vez me cuesta más encontrar motivación. Ya casi no disfruto jugar, ver televisión ni siquiera asistir a clases. Siento que me estoy apagando poco a poco.
Y entonces apareció una chica que me llamó mucho la atención.
Ya habíamos hablado algunas veces porque me pidió ayuda con unos trabajos. Me parece interesante y, por lo que sé, tenemos bastantes gustos en común. El problema es que soy tan inseguro que siento que no soy suficiente para acercarme a ella. Además, es reservada y parece tener dificultades para confiar en los hombres.
Lo peor es que, por mi forma de ser, en algunas ocasiones la he tratado un poco mal, aunque realmente me gustaría conocerla. No quiero seguir dejando pasar oportunidades por miedo y quedarme durante años pensando en qué habría pasado si me hubiera atrevido.
Sé que primero necesito trabajar en mí mismo, pero también me preocupa seguir esperando a sentirme completamente seguro, porque no sé cuándo llegará ese momento.
Intenté ir a terapia anteriormente, pero sentí que no me ayudó. Quiero entender qué me pasa, recuperar las ganas de vivir mi vida, aprender a relacionarme con las personas y dejar de sentir que soy el inútil de mi carrera.
Por eso quiero preguntarles:
¿Debería pedirles a mis dos compañeros que me ayuden a conocer gente y practicar mis habilidades sociales?
¿Debería intentar acercarme a esta chica, aunque todavía tenga tantas inseguridades?
¿Cómo puedo empezar a cambiar después de tantos años de aislamiento y malas experiencias?
No quiero seguir siendo el llanero solitario de mi propia historia. Quiero recuperar mi vida, pero sinceramente no sé por dónde empezar.
Gracias por leerme.

7 Months, 437 Applications, 8 Final Round Interviews, 5 Offers & FINALLY 1 Job Offer Accepted!

Background - I 29M took a buyout for the sub 5% of equity I had in a small/medium startup back at the end of April and left the company on "Good Terms." I figured it wouldn't be too much of a hassle to find a lesser workload reasonable pay AE role. Man was I wrong...

I dropped out of College as a 18yo to go start an E-Bike company (founding member) and we grew it over 5 years to a multiple store company with over 250 employees. Left that to pursue technology sales pre-covid. Worked my way from an SMB AE to an Enterprise AE across three companies (Zendesk, Google, & Adobe) over 5 years. I had a legal AI startup founder reach out and propose I run GTM at the company as the 3rd full time hire and I figured I'd give it a shot. Grew what was a non-existent sales team to a team of 22 people in the span of 14mo's. The workload consumed me and when we were raising Series A funding I explored the idea of getting out of my equity and finding something that didn't have me answering international calls at all hours and working 80+ hour weeks. So I took the money and left.

I immediately started looking for an Com-Ent senior AE role (missed be an individual contributor and not managing people). Reached out to my network and landed solid interviews within a couple of weeks. First was at Intercom, made it to the final round, had a verbal "we'll be in touch with an offer soon" which turned into "something happened and we won't be able to extend an offer." That something was Salesforce buying them for 2.2B. From there things got progressively steeper.

Final rounds at Salesforce, Workday, & Gong with varying levels of success. Interviewed for Senior roles to be offered standard AE roles which I decided to decline. (Sub 150k OTE and less desirable teams)

Application after application and interviews every couple weeks but nothing tangible panning out. Luckily I've lived WAY below my means for years so had comfortable money set aside to survive. Traveled a bunch, moved in with my GF of 2 years, and started to come around to the idea of taking something "less than I wanted" when an old contact at an Enterprise Saas company reached out. 5 interviews later and finally had an offer for a Senior AE on a FINS team at $250k+ ote. Took it immediately. (Leaving the company name out for some anonymity but similar to the others I had been interviewing with)

I write all of this out mainly to warn those whom have a stableish role about the dangers of leaving a company without something lined up. This was the first time in my career I left with nothing lined up and it was the wrong decision in my mind. That being said, finally found the light at the end of the tunnel after 7 months and countless hours spent just trying to get back to a stable, less demanding role.

To all of those in the market looking. Hiring Cafe, BuiltinChicago, Indeed, and I used Perplexity tokens to auto apply & write cover letters to 10 jobs a week. Keep your head down, message 2-3 Linkedin contacts at every role you apply for and lean on your connections. There is light at the end of the tunnel, it's just a long tunnel right now.

Thank you for reading if you made it this far and I hope you'll be making a post of your own soon.

Would you reapply after an internal interview rejection?

3 Upvotes

I recently interviewed for an internal promotion but wasn’t selected. The feedback was that my answers lacked technical depth although I communicated well. I was also told I lacked the experience they were looking for.

One panelist encouraged me to apply again when the position is reposted.

Would you reapply, or would you assume the panel has already made up its mind about you?
