Have you ever felt extremely uncomfortable being around people? Do you find yourself deciding not to socialize because of your fear of being in social settings? Or perhaps you don't want to be seen or stand out. Have you ever wondered why? Social anxiety can show up in many ways in your life, and it can be debilitating and make it difficult to maneuver in everyday situations.
If this is a continuing pattern you find yourself dealing with, this can seriously affect your life and may cause you to become somewhat socially awkward. If your fears stem from facing social situations, then experts will call this social anxiety.
Social Anxiety
Social anxiety is the fear of interacting with people. With the idea that you will be judged and criticized, and you may even feel a sense of not belonging.
When dealing with social anxiety, there are different levels in which it could be affecting you; for example, you may become unsettled and anxious when you feel unsure or uncertain of a new situation. Or, on the other end of the scope, just the thought of meeting people could send you into a full-blown anxiety attack.
This is where social anxiety can absolutely interfere with daily life. The stronger this anxiety is in your mind, the more debilitating your life will seem.
Social anxiety, when not addressed, can interfere with almost every area of life. For example, you may feel immense stress when having to ask people to participate in an exchange of information, talk in a group setting, put yourself in new environments, or meet new people.
You may also find that everyday situations make you extremely anxious. This fear doesn't just go away; it can affect your everyday activities, self-confidence, and relationships at work or school. Social anxiety can also severely affect interpersonal interactions if you're attending a party, going on a date, or going on a job interview. These examples will require you to meet others and engage on a more personal level.
Most people can do this without giving it much thought, but it may be much harder for someone with social anxiety. As a solution, it might seem best to avoid being in certain scenarios, but that certainly won’t solve any of your issues at hand.
In cases such as social anxiety, a great way to find relief is through Rapid Transformational Therapy.
How can Rapid Transformational Therapy help?
Think of your mind as a program. It efficiently runs on basic programming so that it can function properly. Your mind gets used to a way of doing something and reacting a certain way, and it can be difficult to change these unwanted behaviors on your own. In an RTT session, we are able to reprogram the subconscious mind and help change these old, outdated programs and get back on track. I help my clients reset and free themselves from the chains that are keeping them stuck in unwanted behaviors.
Rapid Transformational Therapy can address the root of the issue that causes stress in social settings and interactions and help you overcome it once and for all. It gives your subconscious new, empowering suggestions that help you move from disempowering behaviors and thoughts to empowering yourself in a whole new way.
