Yes lmao. I used to be very social as a child but that started fading. In the 9th grade I again became very social and would speak to anyone without any fear. That changed when I changed schools and I have been living with Social Anxiety since
Don’t worry man. Your personality is still there, you just need to rebuild the confidence to exhibit it again. That’s what everyone here is trying to do : )
Thank you you're doing this. It's really nice to see somebody is releasing his work and providing help to other people around the world for so they can use it for free :)
I’ve been struggling with social anxiety for the past seven years since I was 14. I never really spoke up about it to others and never really worked towards change, I just thought it was just a part of my identity now and tried to carry on with my life. Yet it constantly got in the way caused me to live in fear due to the stupidest ideas. For me SA gave me severe tightness in my head, jaw, and crybaby eyes. These physical feelings combined with low self esteem have caused to act like an empty shell of myself in public. I’m gonna fix this though by the end of this year!
Yea I’m doing a lot better now. My head still gets right from time to time and my eyes do water but it’s much less frequent and much less intense. I notice I feel more resilient and positive . What’s crazy though is most of my progress happened in the span of the last 3 months. I wasted a lot of time with an unhelpful therapist who really didn’t understand anxiety and was just taking meds. What really helped me was a book called Hope and Help for Your Nerves. It helped me practice and learn how to genuinely accept how I felt and overtime just I’ve been getting better
Thank you so much for making this information not only empirically based but also free for all of us to use. I just printed out all the worksheets, and I can't wait to use them.
:( blushing is a huge symptom for me, and it’s strictly because of the embarrassment of being perceived by others. In media blushing is often portrayed as a reaction to having a crush on someone or whatever, (which is never the case for me) so i feel like that assumption makes it even worse for me because then I assume that everyone else assumes that i “like” who ever i’m talking to, but in reality i’m just blushing out of embarrassment 😭😭 i wish i could stop this but it happens in almost every social interaction i have. it’s awful
A similar kind of situation: Running into an old flame who is still chasing a woman long after being told never to call us again and then just to be on the safe side blocked his number. After re-introducing himself to me again because I could no longer recognize him at that venue while I was there with my 2 friends from our community hall senior citizen's gang he asked me if I was with them now. At the time it seemed like a weird question to ask after I had already signed the guest book there with information as to what group I was there with. Since he was a volunteer there who had come out from behind the desk. Needless to say soon after that day I started noticing the same kind of black truck as before soon after I moved here driving back and forth on the street where I live in front of my home as from time to time and that made me feel anxious too. And so my plan this week since it is too cold for me as a senior citizen to be outside much anyway is to get some rest while meeting my responsibilities to my own family members.
This felt so personal (self focus) that I started remembering all of my past presentations (rumination) which were destroyed by me pushing down my trembling voice until I just would burst into crying (cognitive and bodily symptoms, safety behaviors). By remembering all of this about myself (self focus) I started crying again (bodily symptoms). Needless to say since I finished with school I haven't volunteered for any presentations (safety behaviors). In summary.. ouch, that flow chart tore me apart.
So is the whole introvert extrovert thing even real or is propoganda lol cuz now im starting to think the “intrverts are just socially anxious people 😂
@@Sneaky1ne If you’re afraid of public speaking then dont make a big deal out of it everyone is.. I am too its just the others have a better way of hiding their nervousness like outting on a mask
@@Ash-of1yl I realised recently that I'm an ambivert who has developed social anxiety which makes me behave mostly like an introvert. Being by myself makes me feel safe as I don't have to be fear being judged and seen as awkward in social situations. But this shouldn't be a thought for an introvert who doesn't have social anxiety. When they choose to be by themselves, it would be because they love their "me" time and don't actually need to be with people all the time to feel happy. I think some characters in movies portrayed as being introverted actually have social anxiety though.
Thanks for making these videos. I've been struggling with anxiety ever since I started high school back in 2018 and lately it's been ruining my life. I recently had to quit my job because of the sheer pressure I felt just by being around other people and the fear of how they would perceive me. I'm struggling with keeping in touch with my friends because of my anxiety as well. It really sucks to have to live with this issue constantly trying to ruin my life in every capacity so I'm taking the steps necessary to overcome it. I came across the link to these videos on reddit so I'm hoping that watching these modules and doing these worksheets will help in some way.
Thankyou Magnus. Really useful in understanding myself much more and far more useful than any NHS CBT counselling I’ve ever had. - no slight on the NHS in general but they are stretched too thin and less effective as a result.
What a coincidence. This is the same theory I kept in mind while coping with anxiety a long time ago while going through a lot for 17 years the first time I went through a lot. Because I had already taken the course Physiology 101 as a university freshman too. It did help me a lot while learning how to not take things too personally as a young adult at the time. Wish I had done more later in my early middle age to help someone who showed up in the shoe store once to work for us before I was told by the manager of the store that she got hired. That was so long ago now I cannot remember if it was when I was still a manager of a department there before I broke my forearm which needed surgery right away and then requested lighter duties. She had shown up not adhering to our dress code expecting to work. She grew very red in the face, appeared to have a problem with maybe hot flashes and said, "Don't you want me to work for you anymore already on my first day here?" At the time we were all there being expected to carry, set up ladders up to 12 feet or so long alone or in pairs to climb up them to retrieve a box of shoes and then carry the box of shoes back down the ladder while the store was busy. I didn't know what to do at the time so I for awhile ignored her until she gave up and then left the store. After that during the season when parents are rushing to buy shoes for their children before school starts while my arm was in a partly a cast and while I was coping with other health problems too at the time related to menopause too I felt anxiety. The prescriptions offered to me only made me feel light headed and prone to fall. During a busy day the anxiety got so bad I felt short tempered. The supervisors I had there for only awhile were understanding enough while I was healing however after that they kept reducing my hours in an unpredictable schedule while changing the scheduling system at the time. Everyone there felt more anxiety than usual because the music playing on the loudspeaker sounded so mysogonistic and full of hate. In addition before my hours were getting cut back slowly but surely there was one day a woman who looked pregnant at the time who had walked into our store and then admitted that she was in labor unexpected too early and it was for the first time and so she didn't know what to do because a rush of maybe amniotic fluid had just fallen to the floor. Again I felt overwhelming anxiety and maybe didn't handle the situation right when calling for an ambulance, cleaning the floor of the customer bathroom and remaining with her there lying on the floor on coats until the ambulance came to get her. Without anyone there phoning for police when suspecting that some crime was being committed. Then after my hours got cut back to nothing a much younger than me woman who had been assigned to be what was called a supervisor fell off of the ladder when I wasn't around, got a concussion and broke an arm too. Quite some time after my arm which was already healed from an injury some years before that got broken too when I was headed to West Edmonton Mall nearby on my off work hours. I have learned something from all those experiences. How can I apply what I have learned now in different role than what I was at the time studying for too at the time? I try not to stress too much about that while having unreasonable too high of a standard to prove that at age 66 now I am employable too just like the young girl who healed before me.
I am 27 years old and I experience social anxiety with women, I really want to fix it and get love and affection. There was only one girlfriend and sex in my life, and that was 5 years ago, since then I have been avoiding it. Thank you for these videos, they helped me take the first small steps - do not look away and talk when possible, I also downloaded tinder and will soon start dating. It is very pleasant to listen to you, although you are a translator, your speech is sweet and kind, you seem to accept my deviations through the screen :). Sorry for grammatical errors
I'm 37 and I only discovered I had social anxiety a few years ago. I had never heard that term before. I just thought I was shy. But after hearing it, I don't know where and reading about it, I realized what I had was more than just shyness. I recently was getting some counselling and that person said something must have happened in my life to cause my social anxiety. But I remember being embarrassed and worried about what my own family thought of me on my 3rd birthday when I got Play-Doh as a present and tried to eat it. Once I tasted it I knew I wasn't supposed to eat it but I was so embarrassed and I remember looking around to see if anyone saw me do that. Thankfully they didn't. But it's frustrating when you are trying to get help and people don't seem to really understand it.
6:19 if you have a lot of social anxiety, this brooding can be very unfortunate because it takes a lot of time and energy and is associated with bad humor.
I started hyperventilating and ran out of the class when I just had to introduce myself to others, so I wouldn't be able to even give a presentation. I think my issue is too severe for this program.
Honestly I would not feel social anxiety If I had to show a presentation, because for me it is not really social thing Yes you have to show it to people but In its core, the point is that you know some topic very well, and you try to present it and explain it as well as possible. So the rules are known, you are good at some topic, you create a presentation in format of slides, you can put some humor in it so that i would not be boring Going to a party is completly different, because the only reason why thing like parties exist is to socially interact with others, There are "social" rules but these rules can only be taught by going to parties, and it so happens that for awkward poeple it is much more difficult to naturally understand these rules
Wow I completely agree with you. Yeah a presentation feels totally different from trying to make conversation with people but I understand people who are scared of presentations
Hey so i blink too much while talking and (i lived in a boys hostel before corona) and people there used to make fun of me, about everything single thing that i did. I think some people did that to annoy me and get schadenfreude. Now i get so self conscious even when my lips get dry. Or i feel like i am doing something wrong. What i did at that moment was to ignore everything that anyone says about my looks and what i did. People say that i am too innocent and that i should reply to these types of people with harsh comebacks but i can't think of one. And i dont wanna spend my energy doing that. I swear to god people think i am weak and then only they pick on you. I got pick on by this piece of shit and i even reported him to the teacher but his awful behaviour didn't stop. I even shouted at him very loudly it still didn't stop. He fought with many people and lost and i am not physically strong. I wanted to do speeches and other stuff that i am comfortable with but his bullying inhibited me. I fell into a depression back then.
So is the whole introvert extrovert thing even real or is propoganda lol cuz now im starting to think the “intrverts are just socially anxious people 😂
@adrian ramirez No there arent such a thing these “introverts” are people who are usually addicted to technology and other easy dopamine sources in this new age and because of this easy dopamine they dont have the same drive “extroverts” do to socialize to get that dopamine.. its simply common sense no need to complicate things no one is born socially inept or an introvert with a slow social battery they need to fix their environments first
@adrian ramirez And Id like to argue that everyone is an “introvert” in a sense because socializing gets tiring for everyone after a while and EVERYONE needs time afterwards to recharge I think thats perfectly normal
@adrian ramirez And shyness can be changed 100% I used to be shy but through exposure and bit by bit displaying confidence saying no or straight up being mean you strart to be more confident
for some reason presentations don't give me as much anxiety as group projects or social gatherings with people I don't know well. For a presentation I think of it like: I just have to look presentable and read the material understandably, and if I succeed in those two things then the presentation will go well. One on one social interactions are weirdly sometimes the most stressful for me.

I see your comment that says that you figured it out, but if somebody else has your same initial confusion: The CBT diamond is the model of the previous module, which you were supposed to have already done. In this module, Thomas is asking you to complete a new, second module, which is under "Worksheet 2" (social situations, catastrophic thinking, etc.).
I am a student of psychology 2 semester and my presentation of epilepsy in am soo nervous and my teacher told me how you present your presentation 😢 so how I prepare my presentation and study give me some advice please 😢
Blushing is my main issue. Made me antisocial and avoidant... which is worse because the things i love are extroverted activities..art and music ...wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy...
I was invited for a integration party at my work, I will go there. it is starting in 4 hours, I had diarrhea in the morning, I cant eat anything, ive slept maybe 3 hours At this time I feel scared, my heart rate is elevated, I know my voice is very quiet bevause its always like that, and even when i will try to say something they wont be able to understand me I know i will be akward and I will say almost nothing, People will try to be nice to me, they just wont find me interesting or fun, they will never think about me as a person they would like to spend more time with. They will try to dance and sing songs, but i dont know how to behave in situations like that, i cant dance and I dont know any of the "party songs" They said they prepared things like karaoke and stuff I know i will refuse to participate in that, and they will not like that we will see how I will feel after the party is over, maybe it wont be that bad?
Wdym? He basically outlines the structure of social anxiety to make sure that we understand how the strategies he will give us help and how our current safety behaviors are harmful and perpetuate social anxiety. I’m assuming the actual strategies will be in the next few videos- this one was more of an overview of SA.
I'm here to change my life. Will stop at nothing. Social anxiety exposes me sometimes and embarrasses me so much.
Anybody here went from being confident once and having personality to the opposite?
Yes lmao. I used to be very social as a child but that started fading. In the 9th grade I again became very social and would speak to anyone without any fear. That changed when I changed schools and I have been living with Social Anxiety since

i used to be confident but then i developed social anxiety
I was invited for a integration party at my work, I will go there.
it is starting in 4 hours, I had diarrhea in the morning, I cant eat anything, ive slept maybe 3 hours
At this time I feel scared, my heart rate is elevated, I know my voice is very quiet bevause its always like that, and even when i will try to say something they wont be able to understand me
I know i will be akward and I will say almost nothing, People will try to be nice to me, they just wont find me interesting or fun, they will never think about me as a person they would like to spend more time with. They will try to dance and sing songs, but i dont know how to behave in situations like that, i cant dance and I dont know any of the "party songs"
They said they prepared things like karaoke and stuff I know i will refuse to participate in that, and they will not like that
we will see how I will feel after the party is over, maybe it wont be that bad?

Ight imma come back when someone tells me what to do in the comments without having to watch a 8 minute video just to find that out
Wdym? He basically outlines the structure of social anxiety to make sure that we understand how the strategies he will give us help and how our current safety behaviors are harmful and perpetuate social anxiety. I’m assuming the actual strategies will be in the next few videos- this one was more of an overview of SA.
