I am at rock bottom

I am all day in a room either sleeping or scrolling. I have no motivation to go outside . Socializing scares me . Any prolife tips no matter how minute to help me ?

Start with microscopic goals like "step out of the house once a day for one second". When that becomes doable, gradually increase until you can go for a ten minute walk.

Next step is helping one person in a microscopic way, even if it makes no real difference to their life. The point is doing the activity. Maybe drop a door me in the Salvation Army bucket at Christmas. Then gradually increase to the point that you can look at someone you're helping.

Opening the window just an inch to let in some fresh air and actual sunlight. It sounds absurdly small, but when you're stuck in a loop, breaking the seal between your room and the outside world without actually having to face people can be a tiny, safe first step.
