What if today a man in a suit was to knock on the door and handed you a briefcase full of money, lets say a couple of million for you to keep and spend at your own pleasure, not long after your offered the dream career move youve been looking for all your life, you start on monday.
An hour later some strangers knock on the door and ask to come in for no reason, you all get on like bread and butter, youve managed to develop a new friendship, people who dont judge you on your weaknesses or banter.
Its safe to say that that night you'd possibly be cured and feel a liberating sense of happiness, and the anxiety, low self esteem would have evaporated into nothingness.
So this begs the question is Anxiety a grand illusion of self perception that is just warped from your environment around you?
Especially if Anxiety can VANISH! in an instant depending on how your day plays out.
Because if your growing up in a house where you have people or family telling you your no good, or that you wont amount to anything, the tendancy is that you'll think about a comment made by those you care about, and you may start believing that your not as worthy as others, if its a hostile environment, then the common reaction is to BECOME THE STATE IN WHICH YOUR ENVIRONMENT DELIVERS, when it doesnt have to, you can choose to react in a challenging & positive way that counters your circumstances, which your clearly not satisfied with, being socially around others, your career, finance, hobbies, anything
The point is even though its natural to feel nerves, and anxiousness, nothing is ever as severe as how you think it is, the problem is that once you start believeing these negativities then you feel as though its not possible to escape.
Once you step outside of yourself, realise that its good to screw up, you can indeed live the life you want even if moments of social awkwardness pops its head in the door, you can learn from those experiances ....
Is anxiety just a mangled self perception that directly relates to your circumstances, when REALLY if humans are equal in worth, low self esteem and phobias are more a result reaction of cultural and society conditioning of what we learn while growing up, not phobias so much.
We grow up in a narrow vice that can open and close depending on how the plan plays out ..if your ideals are too narrow and you fall outside of them then of course its going to be EASY to FAIL in your own mind.
meh, i dont know what im saying, what do you think?
