Social Anxiety is like being shy only it runs deeper than that.
To be shy might mean you blush, or you're too shy to raise your hand in class.
If you have social anxiety, you will not only blush, but you might get an overwhelming fear of the social situation you are attending.
There are several self-help methods to overcome social anxiety and/or just being shy, but I've found one more that looks very promising.
It's part of a Calming Collection. Goodbye Anxiety, Goodbye Fear
is a motivational and hypnosis CD.I get skeptical when I see the word hypnosis, but this CD just might be the ticket.
The product description reads:
GOODBYE ANXIETY, GOODBYE FEAR is the third in the highly acclaimed Calming Collection Series. This CD includes four tracks: The first is called general fears, and is a very powerful tool , through the use of hypnosis, visualization, and imaginal exposure, to help eliminate and extinguish a wide variety of fears and phobias, including fear of public speaking, medical situations, relationships, confrontations and many other types of fears and phobias one might have. The second track is for fear of flying. The third track for fear of driving. Even if one doesn't have driving or flying issues, it can be useful to listen to the entire CD, as it provides additional reinforcement of the general concepts of relaxation and empowerment in challenging situations.
