Pitso, why don't you go to the topic, "Fear: Talking to girls. What can I do?" in the Paraliminal Learning forum. Don't worry about the title, because there are several suggestions in my post pertaining to self-confidence and depression. One of them mentioned is Zig Ziglar's tape (or CD) "Success and the Self-Image". I've just begun listening to it, doing what he says to do. The specific steps he has outlined for you will definitely have an impact on depression and confidence, and can turn your life around. Coupled with the Learning Strategies programs, you can't go wrong.
Just take a moment and click over there, and read the rest in my letter. There is a certain hands-on seminar course you can take, and/or a really fun club you can join that can make a difference in your life.
As with anything else, just take what you need from the info, and leave the rest. This is the best way that I've found to learn, so that nothing needed goes unnoticed.
