Social anxiety
Is it just me that feels total panic fill me through when I know i have to attend a social event? Especially when I have to leave an impression? How do you deal with the anxiety that comes with it?
@pie29Hi, nice too meet you! I can totally understand ho you are feeling.
Social events can come with a lot of social preassure, I know. I have been through similar experiences and it can be very overwhelming. Social anxiety can make things very difficult.
So I'm glad you reached out to the community, that's why we are here. To supprt everyone that is struggeling. Well done! ^^
Everyone has it unque technique that works to decrease the anxiety in public places. I can tell you some.
- If you feel watched and paranoid, you can listen to music and really focuse only on the sounds. There's no one except for you. Maybe you are in a music video or in a movie scene? No one else matters. Then breath and focuse on the music to distracte yourself from the outside world.
- Or maybe you take any little item that is interessting to you or that makes you feel calm and protected with you to focuse on that. If our mind is busy focusing on sth, it wont drift away so easily
I know, sometimes it doesn't work out right away, but it's a journey that needs time. Everyone improves at their own speed, so don't worry about taking a step back. There's always improving and movement.
I believe in you! Feel free to reach out to me, if you want to.
You're amazing, strong and a beautiful person ^^ Take care 😘
