Question Posted Saturday September 3 2005, 5:45 pm
I get embarassed ALL the time. EVERYTHING embarasses me. It has gotten so bad, that it's to the point where getting embarassed is what I think about ALL day. I wonder when I'm gonna feel stupid, or who is gonna embarass me, etc..When I get embarassed my face turns BRIGHT red and it stays that way for a while and only gets worse when I think about it. I can feel it getting hott and I know it's turning red and then I think about it which makes me feel even more stupid! I'm so nervous and I don't want to look like an idiot. What are some ways that I can not be so obvious or cover it up!? Is there make-up, a certain way to breathe, or ANYTHING!? I'm so desperate. I need help!
Additional info, added Saturday September 3 2005, 5:46 pm: I was also wondering, if anyone else is like this? tell me about it if you are!! but mostly I just need help on working to not get embarassed all the time. . Want to answer more questions in the Miscellaneous category? Maybe give some free advice about: Random Weirdos? AnneNonimous answered Tuesday September 6 2005, 8:59 pm: From the symptoms you are describing it almost sounds as if you have some sort of mild social anxiety disorder. Everyone seems pretty dismissive that you're just feeling akward or self-conscious but to me it sounds like something more significant. If you are thinking about it all day, and experience PHYSICAL symptoms about being around/in front of people than perhaps you should speak to some sort of counseling. It's not 'okay' for you to feel anxious, scared, embarassed or uncomfortable in public all the time. I would talk to your family doctor and see if he might have recommendations about what to do next.

Like if i feel down the stairs, or tripped. (wich i do on a daily basis). Recovering from embarresment can be easy or it can be difficult. Try not to think about it so much, because then you just look tense. Try to relax. Also, i doubt theres anything to cover-up the redness because I still get like that. I hope i helped a little!
