Hi there,
I don‘t know if this is the right place to post this. But I’ve been wondering for quite some time now if there are other people out there, having similar problems as me. So here goes:

I am scared shitless of taking up a job, internship, or virtually any sort of productive activity. There is no bigger dread to me than thinking of my inadequacy for the most basic tasks. I get overwhelmed whenever I imagine the tasks I may be confronted with and the various ways in which I could mess up / sth could wrong.
I didn’t have to confront this fundamental fear of mine in the past because my parents were incredibly generous and have supported me for all these years (I’m 20 years old now) - and I greatly appreciate that, I really do. But I feel increasingly guilty for not addressing this issue, esp. because I haven’t made any progress at all. 
The thing is, I wouldn’t even call myself lazy. Whenever I have to do something, I work hard toward succeeding at this task. And oddly enough, I love learning/ studying. I really do. So it doesn’t disturb that this often means putting in a lot of effort. But as soon as it is about the practical application of whatever I’ve learnt, I’m literally paralyzed by fear and can’t think of anything else. 

Can anyone out there relate to this? I’m really desperate right now.

Thank you!
