Through exercises I did with my old therapist, i notice the more I keep my mind busy, the less I worry and feel anxiety. I was starting to try that again today. Like, when I'm at a stoplight and I'm feeling self concious and think people are looking at me... I start reading license plates over and over again and that takes the focus off me and on other things. So, that works, but I've yet to find a way to do this when I'm talking with someone. I try to focus on the words they are saying, but I always seem to get distracted by their eyes. It's like, where do I look? It's a pain in the butt. Anyone have any ideas on how to overcome this? Anyone use this method for similar problems?
