For me I just realised it's incredibly annoying for others when one thinks and acts like that, so I slowly stopped doing it
When I see people doing it now I get kinda angry because it feels incredibly immature and willfully miserable

It literally does, just stop being a pussy. It's really that simple, have some faith in yourself. If you can't even comprehend people genuinely liking you in the slightest bit, how do you expect to do anything with your life? >inb4 reddit nihilism response

I've always been an isolated loner with no friends. Rejected by people constantly. I'm a virgin in my 30s. How am I supposed to have faith in myself?

You don't. If they like you it means they're either ignorant, naive, or just straight up retarded.
Until you make something of yourself and become someone worth spending time with and energy on always assume that the people that give you the time of day want something from you or simply don't know better.

This is actually the same for me. Now that I've stopped being a shy insecure wreck myself, I find people like that really annoying and they should get over themselves.

You have to work out whatever trauma made you like this. You can't just pivot and be a different person, you have to confront what led you down that road in the first place.

Never made any progress. Visited multiple psychiatrists, tried tons of drugs, TMS treatment, psych hospital stays, male therapists, female therapists. Spent tens of thousands of dollars

Listening, answering questions, doing assignments. Talking about the past. Taking assessments and scales. Reading books. Talking about medication and other treatments. Going to group therapy. The longest therapist I had was for 2 years
