To anyone with no anxiety issues Or pretty good self confidence... How do you tackle your day,...

I have anxiety but it's usually before the event. When I'm already in the situation, I either wing it somehow or find out I'm prepared for it and it somehow works, on autopilot and dissociated if needed. Like I have the impression I just hear myself saying something but feel like that's not really me and some other part took a lead. If the autopilot doesn't turn on, it's a disaster, the stage fright takes over, I get brain fog, can't focus, speak incoherently, repeat myself..you must know it. I guess everyone witnessed someone with severe performance anxiety at least once in their life.

Lots of repetition I guess. Beta blockers helped me get good at public speaking. I’m confident in my work space. But less confident socially and I don’t really enjoy it except for a select few people. I think I’d be terrible at dating these days. Meds and alcohol would be my answer probably.

There isn't anyone that doesn't have "anxiety issues"

We just all have to find our own healing. It looks different for everyone.

But if I can impart something, we really are social. So however you can make that comfy for yourself, you might find it helpful 💙

I find it easy. Just a couple of simple points to remember. First. All those people who you spend your life worrying about what they think about you. They arent thinking about you at all. They are worried about what you think about them..
Second. You dont have to be perfect or anything near perfect. You just have to be good enough that if you were the only person left on earth, you would be good enough for you.. You are the only one you have to satisfy..😷

Everybody is different
It's a combination of DNA, nature & nurture
So it's hard to say what'll work for you
I just usually don't worry about things i can't control and deal with things as they come

My anxiety is managed thru medication. And long walks in the woods. And Peanut M&Ms. 😀

French fries. They work pretty good for reducing anxiety in me.
