Hello Everyone!
it's cool to find an international forum that unite all of us social anxiety suffers
i am new here. from Israel. cool site!
i have a question about a problem i have, and i thought maybe someone here dealt with this problem.
i know about my social anxiety (from now on i will write SA) for 4 years now.
I'm helping myself alone, with no doctors and no medications of some sort, the things i am doing to treat my SA is to fight my fear and do things although im afraid and learn what other people do in certain situations.
in the past few months i began telling myself affirmation and listen to tapes with affirmations and listening to a CBT training tape.
now i am more happy and looking things with a positive mind, and im not depressed and rarely feel down, and mostly my problem now is low self esteem which i am trying also to help myself.
but the biggest problem i have and that what i wanted to ask, i have for no apparent reason stress and i feel a pressure on my chest, and it really bothers me and preventing to be sometimes in a relaxed state to say affirmation or listen to tapes.
it's really weird because it doesn't happen when i am around people or something it just happen. i feel it mostly when i am listening to affirmation tapes, sometimes when i listen to music, and sometimes it just happen and i have no explanation for it...
someone exprienced it in the past? know how to overcome this?
