I am scared of expressing my feelings and it is causing me a lot of social anxiety. Help!?
BySo I am 24 and pretty much all my life I have had problems with expressing my self. Usually I get really strong emotional responses, but I am scared of expressing them. This has caused me a lot of social anxiety because I fear people with judge me if I express myself in such a strong manner. Even the smallest things could lead me to have very strong reactions. What can I do to stop feeling like this? It is seriously impacting my life.
you need to start putting your emotions in practice like little by little expressing small things about you or u towards ppl with time you get adjusted , that’s how i did it and now i feel like i am annoying but this feeling is better than the one i had before .

Being assertive is easy. As long as you’re confident in the things that you say or do, people will react positively.

dont be afraid to react. If you keep worrying about what people are going to think of you then you will prbably be seen as emotionless. I dont think you would want that. But if you think you react too strongly to the littlest things, then try just thinking about what just happened or the situation first, go through in your mind what would be an appropriate reaction, then react accordinging, instead of just nit reacting at all

I know how you feel, i live in a house were nobody cares about what i say, but you know what, i say it anyway cause i care about what i have to say that much. SCREW people! Say what you want, you just have to find the strength to be YOU! All i say is dont express yourself so strongly that it hurts others, like dont yell and scream, and please just say your peace and if your proven wrong please accept it, cause one thing i know i hate is when a person is proven dead wrong and wont accept it, thats so pety and dumb, but you have every right to express your opinion just do it in a nicer way.
