Marisa Peer – Overcome Social Anxiety
More than simply being shy or introverted, social anxiety is an overwhelming fear of social situations… and not just during the event—it’s before and after too. You worry about what might happen and then reflect on what did happen, evaluating our performance.
It’s exhausting, frustrating, and it stops you from truly enjoying life.
It’s difficult to find a loving relationship when you find the thought of meeting new people terrifying.
You may feel disconnected from your friends as you continuously make excuses and turn down their invitations to go out… and you fear that eventually they might give up on you altogether.
You don’t put yourself forward in the workplace because you fear your ideas aren’t good enough or your opinions aren’t respected, scared that your coworkers will judge you if you come up with anything less than perfect.
We avoid. We hold back. We hide.
Signs of social anxiety include:
Worrying about meeting new people… what will they think of me? Will they accept me? Like me?
Actively avoiding social situations, from parties to dinner with friends… perhaps even feeling embarrassed to eat in front of others, even those you know well.
Overthinking everything—from what to say to how you come across. You worry about all the ways you could potentially embarrass yourself or appear incompetent… and the result is you often end up paralyzed, doing and saying nothing at all in the end.
Difficulty making eye contact as you feel nervous and unsure about being the central focus, scared of the disapproval or disappointment you may see in the other person’s expression.
Intense physical reactions during social situations, including nausea, excessive sweating, trembling, racing heart, and blushing… you are acutely aware of these reactions and will do anything to avoid them—most notably, avoiding the situation that causes them altogether.
But you could change that.
