How do I overcome the fear of cashiers?

Realize they are a person just like you. They can get anxious and upset as well, they are there to do their job and help you to the best of their ability. If you’re nervous about something you’re buying, that’s okay. Again, they are just there to do their job. They aren’t going to judge you

Practice in the mirror. Talk to yourself and see how well you respond. Imagine worse case scenarios and respond to that as well. Preparing is the fist step and practicing it is second. Keep going and soon enoigh there will be no such thing as fear. Just another experience.

You can overcome fears by testing it slowly go into the store walking around walk out repeat situation each time getting closer to the cashier before pushing yourself to go there

To overcome the fear of cashiers, you can go up to the cashiers and start a friendly conversation and if you fail try again eventually you would be able to pay anywhere without fear.

There are many different ways of overcoming fears, but the most effective way is a method called "Flooding." With this, you are immersed in a place where there are only cashiers. Have pictures of cashiers in your room, complete transactions at stores, watch videos on youtube of transactions. In doing this, you are telling your body that the fear is not there and that everything will be OK (otherwise known as Desensitizing).

As someone with social anxiety who has also worked as a cashier, I can assure you that the cashier is not judging you or anything of the sort. I used to work as a cashier in both a coffee shop and a makeup store, and as a receptionist in a chiropractic office, and I saw so many people a day that each customer/patient was simply a blip on the map. I didn't even remember most of the people I helped, unless they were regulars. Try to remember that they are just people, too, and they may be feeling similar anxiety to what you are feeling! Try taking things one step at a time. Is it easier to manage this fear if you have a friend or family member with you? If so, start out this way; with someone by your side. Try and engage with the cashier as if they are just another friend. As you get more comfortable with a "safe" friend by your side, you can try doing the same on your own. Baby steps! Chin up :)

Identify where your fear is coming from, then figure out how to overcome that base fear.

Figure out why you're afraid of them then face your fears! You cannot get over something until you realize why you feel that way and confront it

I used to have terrible social anxiety but once I started working as one, I understood that cashiers aren't there to judge you. They simply want to accomplish their job and sometimes strike up a friendly conversation. But we are just normal humans like everyone else and don't believe ourselves superior.

As I’ve worked in a similar position cashiers do not care to remember you or anything about you, don’t be scared
