To start with, I am just so tired of having to avoid social situations whether it's parties, meeting new people, greeting visitors and the like. I have just told myself that I can't keep wallowing in self pity without actually taking action. No one will do it for me so I have to take charge of my life. So today I have taken the bold step of doing ERP for my social anxiety.
So as part of ERP (exposure response prevention), I was thinking of doing video calls (maybe an hour a day) with other people with social anxiety. I don't know if it's just me but it would feel less intimidating to do this with another person or other people with Social anxiety. If you're scared of being awkward, don't worry we can enjoy the awkwardness together. Remember, if the thought of performing such an exercise brings you some anxiety, that is your cue to do it. Growth happens outside our comfort zones. One year from now you will wish you had started today. This is your chance, seize it! Anyone interested?
