Do you suffer from facial redness or blushing when you get uncomfortable?
Blushing is a symptom of social anxiety. Excessive blushing is a reaction to a strong emotion caused by a situation where you feel anxious, uncomfortable or embarrassing like a presentation in front of people perhaps, meeting your date for the first time, a job interview, or having to meet lots of people at a big party. The flight or fight response increases the activity of the sympathetic nervous system releasing adrenaline into the bloodstream. This widens blood vessels, altering and relaxing the blood vessels underneath the skin which increases the volume of blood going to the skin. It is here we experience facial redness or blushing. Excessive blushing sufferers are scared that they will come across as shy or weak.
All it takes is that one tiny situation of discomfort and you can feel the redness coming on and it is almost impossible to stop once it’s started. If your nervous blushing is interfering with your ability to interact with people it’s time to address the problem and address the emotional thoughts behind it. Treating the cause in this way will help to make you more comfortable in that social situation. Facial blushing was so embarassing for me and it was holding me back from so much in life. However, when I learned to deal with it and face those emotions it started to get better. I noticed the more I tried to stop it the more I would experience it, I had to get to the “root” and confront the feelings I had. Increasing your confidence and self esteem is another key factor to eliminate social blushing.
Blushing is a natural reaction to emotions. The more you worry or concentrate on blushing the more it seems to reoccur, so acknowledge your feelings and try to let it go and carry on through the event. You can learn to lessen the intensity or frequency and one day you’ll notice that you don’t even worry about it anymore.
After experiencing relief from blushing I purchased the Panic Away program to eliminate my anxiety attacks that I had suffered with for so many years. I researched anxiety and all the programs offered for almost a year and when I came across Barry Joe’s program I couldn’t wait to get started.
