I tend to think …
I tend to think that this fear is naturally cured in time following some steps. Still: who’s willing to wait for it? We should all try to think of some ways to overcome the fear. Why am I afraid of not staying inside? What’s the chance of someone hurting me if I go out? Why can’t I sustain my point of view in front of someone? They’ll laugh etc?How can I be sure of that?

I managed to overcome it [like 90%]. My last problem is talking in front of like 50+ people. I get lost in my thoughts.

When I was little I …
When I was little I couldn’t talk at all in front of more than 2-3 people [including friends]. At school I was the shy, “always in her bench” girl. It was really difficult for me to start a conversation and make friends. Apart of the kids from my block who I grew up with, I didn’t have any other. And even so, most of the time I used to play alone. I’ve been like this for as long as I can remember, but in the past 4 years I decided to deal with it so I took some measures.

There’s also one thing that I would like to know… do the medications help stop the blushing? Because I’ve had this case since I was 12! I’m now 21 and still haven’t gone to therapy even though I probably should, because I get really bad anxiety when like you said I feel like people might be watching and judging or especially when I have an oral presentation to do… which I try to avoid at all cost!

I just wanted to …
I just wanted to make a point about the walmart example (falling in the store and people starring) Anxiety might come through that situation mainly because it might have happened earlier in life, let’s say in preschool or in high school! That’s something that follows you for a long time in life! It has a deeper effect at time, than just the thought of trpping…
