@calmconfidencetherapy: What are some other things other people have said to you that you couldn’t stand? #socialanxiety #shy

🦭 :

I want to roll my eyes when my therapist says what’s the worst that can happen to a trivial situation that worries me like baby i already AM thinking about the worst situation

Theresadiva :

We are literally traumatized, that's why we care. It's not our fault

bk :

i dont think i have social anxiety...i mean I dont feel like Im gonna throw up or panic when i have to socialize but I do fear peoples perception of me

yaldaboth :

I learned that most of my thoughts are not my thoughts but from others from observing them 🤣🤣🤣

The thing is I don’t care and I know it doesn’t matter and I know no one is thinking about but it still engulfs me. I genuinely do not care anymore, but I have lived my entire life caring too much. It’s not just an off switch. The brain creates neural pathways. You have to break them. It takes time. That’s the most frustrating part to me, it is not some like oh shit now I don’t care or I acknowledge it’s fine and you’re all good… you and your brain have to learn a new normal

Jellyfish_kid :

It’s not something you can rationalize either! I understand that the things I’m worried about are irrational and unlikely and even not something I should worry about but that doesn’t stop the intense psychological and physiological symptoms of anxiety 😮‍💨

You don’t do choose the effect of it in a “I want to be nervous!” way, but you do choose the frame of mind that causes it

My school consuelor had therapy session with me every week just to repeat why do i feel this way when i repeadetly came for months for a solution and made me even worse than İ actually was

It will not get better if you have a defeatist attitude about it. Exposure therapy is the only way unfortunately
