文章大意:这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了五个克服社交恐惧症的方法。

【推荐2】5 Strategies to Overcome Social Phobia (社交恐惧)

Social phobia is an anxiety disorder characterized by intense fear in social situations. People with social phobia feel paralyzing fear when other people are around, as well as nervousness, anguish, or shyness. As we can see, social phobia is very uncomfortable and limiting for the person who suffers from it, so we must differentiate it from shyness.     1    

Learn to relax. People with social phobia often have what is known as anticipatory anxiety.     2     For this we have to learn to relax instead of anticipating the fear of the future situation.

Look for social situations.     3     If we try to relate outside of our usual circle or look for small situations that require a small interaction, we will see how little by little we will feel more comfortable in them. In this way, when a social event arrives that we want to attend or participate in, we will be better able to be comfortable in it.

Make sure your imagination does not betray you.     4     In the vast majority of cases you are afraid of things that have not happened or are not happening. We have to be especially careful what we think others may be thinking of us.

Be yourself. Social phobia is due, in part, to the conviction that we have to be what is expected of us, in giving a perfect image.     5     So we do not have to focus so much on what others may think of us, but on feeling comfortable with ourselves without having to be perfect.

A.That is, they worry about the situation before it occurs.
B.Imagination can play tricks on us in social situations.
C.We have to learn to accept ourselves and trust ourselves.
D.Be aware of avoiding any situation without overcoming.
E.Next, we are going to see a series of tips to overcome social phobia.
F.If we constantly avoid social situations out of fear, it is very difficult for us to be able to overcome them.
G.If we are able to ask open questions that require more than one “yes” or “no” for an answer and we focus on the answers.
