Anxiety and Coping
stats30 August 16th, 2020

Many face anxiety in specific situations or in general.

Describe you experience and your ways of coping. You can give suggestions to one's experience as well. Your experience and coping can help someone else as well.

I dealt with my social anxiety by learning social skills.

This may sound silly but I learned how to make small talk from a book. I learned how to speak in a clear voice from a YT video.

And now that Im armed with knowledge, I dont feel so scared anymore. I know what small talk is supposed to be like. How a good speaking voice sounds like. I may not be able to perform them perfectly, but at least I KNOW. Knowledge is power people, seriously!

So thats my favorite coping technique. Learn the shit out of what makes me scared!
