Tips
If you are restricted by what you feel others will think of you, or see others the cause of your problems, you may benefit from an exercise to regulate your emotions. This exercise might be for you. Go to a chemist and ask for a Pizza, do this with a straight face, take their rejection on the chin, thank them and leave. If you feel awkward acknowledge that feeling, notice how you reacted because this is how you might react in a situation that is more challenging. Think if there is a way I could make this feeling diminish (without speaking to the chemist) what would it be? Do this, if it helps, store it for something to use when you next have to face a fear or uncomfortable situation. Practicing when it doesn’t matter may really help when it does.
