How do you hide your emotions?

It gets hard putting on a poker face.

I went to a park today and this little girl came and asked me if everything was alright if she could help me in some way as I looked sad and she spent time trying to cheer me up make me smile also asked if I wanted to play with the kids so I wasn't all alone by myself .

I thought that was so sweet and special that there are people like this that care about others.

So emotionally I struggle with sadness and sensitivity, anxiety, nervousness, shyness I carry this weight on my shoulders.

I don't know how to look put together when I go out, I don't know how to keep my face without giving away how I'm feeling.

It's just I'm not happy. It sucks because I wanted to be happy I dropped out of college, my boyfriend that I was deeply in love with left me broke up with me. My dog died. I'm stuck. I don't have a driver's license, I don't have a job, I don't own a car, my parents are furious at all the above plus living with them. I'm feeling depressed because I have failed.

I'm scared of driving, I haven't taken the knowledge exam to get a learner's permit and I'm anxious to pay $500 for a ten day class drivers education how can I possibly know how to drive after a week.

The next thing is for work I'm shy and insecure I don't know how to talk to coworkers.

College was difficult I don't know if I can do it.

I hate feeling like I don't fit in.

I just want to be accepted and I need help achieving what I want I wish someone can help me.

I'm laying it all out there I need someone's advice, help a big sister, mentor
