Social Anxiety - Assess Your Fears


Social Phobia – Social Anxiety... Ask yourself, what are your fears? What makes you the most anxious? What situation causes the most extreme anxiety for you?


For me, it is doing anything in public. When I am around people
  • My stomach starts to hurt
  • I feel like I can't breathe
  • My mouth gets extremely dry so I can't speak or swallow
  • I blush
  • I get lightheaded
  • I feel nauseous
  • My body feels tingly
  • My chest hurts
  • I get very warm


Most people with social phobia will have at least some of these symptoms when entering their fearful situation.

I was told that specific breathing techniques would help tremendously. I, however, never mastered the technique as of yet. For that reason, I won't try to explain how to properly breathe until I do more research.

Until next time...
