Hurah!
People's opinions are just that "People's opinions". It doesn't matter what they think, just be yourself and everything should be fine. Have confidence when you are around them. If they are good people, they will accept you for who you are.

Sounds Like you have some type of mental Health , go see a doctor for it.

If not just wait til your nuts drop and don't care about someone else OPINION!
If you seriously get emotional over someone's opinion then you have a problem :(

Keeping calm, and remain focused on yourself. Keep a positive attitude, and greet everyone. Do not wander off on tangents of conversation, but keep it to a specific topic, if you know about it. Overall just be yourself, you might find that you will be well liked. Smile

Good luck.

It's called Anxiety, I have Anxiety in public settings around people I don't know, I feel comfortable when I am around friends and can loosen up but unless I am in a position of authority, in public I don't do well.

My breathing changes, I play with my hands or my hands shake and I tense up. Kinda weird for a big dude but that's me.

It helps to try and keep your mind off of the people, try and think of something else, if you are heading somewhere and have to walk through people, look straight forward, watch your path and try not to look around at others and keep your mind on where you must go or what you will be doing, it helps cause you forget about the people and can help keep the nervous inducing thoughts from racing through your mind.

If they continue, they do have medicine for Anxiety, I refuse to go and get it because I know Anxiety is more psychological and through practice, you can eventually overcome it. (Something that I am getting closer ad closer too, though I still sometimes tear up.. when I say tear up, I mean like a cry with a straight face)...

Misread a bit of what you wrote but it helps to try and maybe focus on other peoples flaws, that way you can then equal out each other. It's still a mental problem that can be fixed with medication though, it would help if you spent a month just going to places like the mall and working your way through a challenge of talking to different people, start with maybe 1 person and then try and get to the point of several people, bring a friend along to help the first few tries. Don't go out every day, maybe 3 of 7 days in a week.

I suppose that this is another one of your drug related threads? You need to sort your head out and stop doing them if you can't handle it. Since you have registered you have posted worthless threads about drugs and their effects, This is a gaming website not a drug counselling forum.

It is a drug...Anything that alters your state is a drug.
