hey guys, brand new here with a problem that I know many ppl have and a problem many people have overcome. Ill try to keep this as short as possible but basically I have some social anxiety problems in general. I dont like talking on the phone, I get nervous whenever I am introduced to someone, trying to keep a convo going with someone. I think my problem comes from me being self centered. I was the youngest of 3 relatives so I grew up in an enviorment with alot of focus always revolving around me and Its what has helped me developing a problem. I dont know what the definition is for it but basically I am always worried how people think of me in social interactions, such as when Im talking to women I always worry how I am acting, what I am saying because I am so worried about how they think of me. It is something stupid because I know in reality that most people are too concerned about themselves for me to even worry how people think of me during first interactions. Even though I know this, its like I turn into a different person bc Im so worried how people view me. This also leads to my problem with having confidence because I always think that people view me in a negative way due to my problem with how people view me. I have 0 confidence as it is and dont really know how to appear to be confident with out seeming like a huge dick bc I am usually sarcastic with the things I have to say. (its tough for people to pick up on too). So heres what I ask yall to anyone with problems or had problems similar to mine. How did you overcome it, whatd you do? etc, you get thanks. |

I'm still struggling with this as well. There was a group of people I hung out with in high school, but never really became close to them, mainly because I was to worried about what they thought of me (I wasn't being myself). I've made huge progress however. Every time I try to act differently because I'm worried about what people think, I need to tell myself to act like myself. I have to say "fuck it" every time I get worried; after all they don't really notice half the things I do or don't do. As I said, I'm still a work in progress so I'd like to see what others have done as well. |
