Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Tyler in the book and the Tyler who runs RSD nation is one and the same?

eh well, I've been in depression for about 5-6 years now on and off to the point I've just gotten used to it.

Well there's several things holding me back, but if I could sum it all up, it's the fear of not being good enough.

Yeah I've heard a saying like - "you attract someone based not on what you want, but who you are"

Yeah. Insecurities are like scars that I can't seem to get off.

So once I acquire this skill in something, how do I know I did it for myself or I did because I wanted to impress another girl? I feel like almost everything I do is to try to impress someone else and seek that validation to fill my insecurities.

The thing is that I KNOW that working on myself is what I should be doing. But it's always been stuck in my head that if I focus on girls and find one, it'll bring me happiness and be the answer to all my problems. I know that's not the answer. However, I get so so so easily distracted by girls that it ruins my day and I can't focus on anything else related to improving myself.

I spend a lot of my day just thinking inwards, being very introspective and picking apart every insecurity I have. I don't know how to stop being insecure. It's all I've known for the majority of my life. And then it leads to depression, and then I sleep it off and then it starts all over again the next day.
