15 year old girl here, in year 11 at school.
chronic blushing is absulutly horrible, i used to enjoy school, but now i completely dread going in every day, in fear that something will set me off blushing. i just go bright red in class whenever the teacher says my name to answer a question or read or something, and i get so paranoid about people talking about me and whenever i go red i feel like everyone is looking at me and laughing, thinking im like some complete wierdo going red for no reason. Anything will set off my blushing, a classmate asking to borrow a pen, the teacher asking me to hand out some work, anything..i also dread going to assembly, in case my name will get called out and ill have to stand in front of hundreds of people..i just feel so pathetic.
my personality has changed so much, i used to be alot more confident, funny, talkative, i even did drama, but now im just a complete nervous wreck, slowly drifting away from my friends.I cant bring myslef to tell my friends or family, because i know they wont understand. I dont think anyone can understand this facial blushing thing unless theyre actually going through it or have gone through it themselves
well that is me :?
id just like to hear from other people who understand this, and how they deal with it. i dont think i could ever bring myself to see a doctor or go on medication or anything like that, gah, this thing just makes me feel so trapped...
