:blush:
I am a 33 year old male and I am suffering from something that a teenage girl might. I am sick to death of going red at the simplest of moments. If anyone looks at me to talk, I go red, I can't talk to checkout staff without boiling up like a tomato, same with any staff in any shop. It is SO bad now that it is happening when I talk to friends and family too.
God help me if I bump in to someone I partly know and they decide to stop to chat, burning face moment !!
Swear or make rude comment ? Red face.
Ask me a question about me ? Red face.
Get angry with me ? Red face.
I remember once a person I slightly knew said they best leave as they are embarrassing me, a I went red, even though I was just listening. So clearly it was obvious. Another person asked if I was okay as I had turned bright red. Damn it is so obvious. The worse thing is now that it is happening with family and friends I am feeling even more annoyed by it. I can feel it starting and I have to grip my hands behind my back and squeeze HARD to try and quell it, but it doesn't always work. I think I have been suffering from anxiety and a form of depression or GAD since I was 19. Does this all sound like a link to that ? I think I remember going red a lot even before I was 19, but never to this extent. Would anti-depressants stop this happening ?
