My main goal is to help children overcome anxiety and despite the fact that this post is not specifically catering to children it does in fact hold some very valueable advice. The above quote holds so much merit. We all need to be challenged but the way to attain your goals and move forward is to do it in manageable steps. All of the wonderful milestones Sydney has hit over the last few months has been as a direct result of continually pushing the envelope but letting her know that all those around her are there to support her.
I’ve learned much about Social Anxiety since then, and probably the most important thing is this: Social Anxiety is largely about feeling “overwhelmed ” The feeling of being overwhelmed is what pushes people into limiting their life to a greater and greater extent, until they find themselves living in a very small world indeed But it doesn’t have to stay that way Understanding that your Social Anxiety is really about feeling overwhelmed can help you to gradually begin making changes to eliminate it.
