I am going to add to my social anxiety that during job interviews and when I talk to some people etc I get really nervous that I get a red blotchy rash on my neck and I find this then adds to the whole nerves because I know that it is going to happen before I even get there and that is all I am thinking about the whole time. I am very embarrassed by it.
Can anyone give me some ideas on how to deal with this or is there something that will help.
Also I find it hard to start conversations with people. I find that I don't really have anything to talk about to start a conversation or to keep one going. I then hear things like I am a snob or not very sociable.
I also find that I try and talk myself out of going out for tea, movies etc with our friends and I get this unwell feeling when I do go out, it goes away once I start to feel comfortable.
I don't drink alcohol and feel anti social because everyone else is and having a good time.
Thanks for listening to my problems again. I have been bottling all these things up for years and find this website great for expressing my thoughts.
