#Am I destined to be alone? (Partial Rant, partial actual question)

I have been suffering from social anxiety and some signs of depression since my school days. As a result I haven't been able to form any kind of relations with anyone, except maybe my parents. I don't have any close friends, I have practically no social life outside work. Never been able to be romantically involved with anyone.
My question is more on romantic side of things, but also overall.
I have been working on my social anxiety in few months and can now slightly confidently approach new people for general conversation. (Still struggle to maintain any continuous contact with people though)
But I don't feel much motivated or confident enough to approach any woman and have any personal conversation, let alone ask her out.
But I constantly feel some emptiness, like I am missing out on life and have lost my chance of having any personal relations. Moreover since I don't meet any people outside work, and don't think trying out anything at work is a good idea, I don't get chance to meet anyone new.
Does that mean I don't have any chance, am I losing the main years of my life when most people form relations?
I don't plan to get into arranged marriage under any circumstance, living alone is preferable to me.
I am not that conventionally attractive either, so that makes things even worse.
Is there any advice for someone like me? Or should I just accept my fate and makeup my mind I will be alone?
(Writing this while having some what of a depression episode sprinkled with existential crisis, so forgive for the long rant)

It's okay. First of all you need to stop overthinking

That creates unnecessary thoughts
