Post subject:  Facing your own fears

A couple of days ago I posted about my anxiety in public. As mentioned, I can identify with most of the symptoms of social anxiety.

I decided to write down my fears and face them. so what are my fears?
I am afraid I will appear weird
I am afraid I will appear creepy
I am afraid I will make someone uncomfortable

So I went out and became the weirdest son of a bitch there is. I made as many people uncomfortable as I could.

It seems to work. check this out. I have a phobia of public speaking. always have. In college, as soon as I would find out a class involves presentations, I would drop it and move to a class that only had written assignments. pretty much, if there is more than 2 people in a room, I cant talk.

so last night I went to this presentation. It was an auditorium style room, 150 or 200 people. I left early, but when i got to the parking lot, I noticed someone had parked behind my car. I went in the room and asked the presenter "can I make an announcement?" fortunately he said "sure"
then I asked who the car belonged to and if they could move it. I was nervous as fuck, but I did it. I know to you it doesn't seem like a big deal, but for me, it is. I could never even dream of doing such thing.

I dont know how I did it. if I were to do it again, I dont think I could. I seem to be reverting back.

What do you recommend I do now so I keep moving forward and not backwards?

Yes keep moving forward. Next time you are tackling a similar fear you may realize that you have a feeling of elation coursing thru your body because you found out that the fear had zero basis in reality.
