If you deal with social anxiety, there's a large chance that you deal with depression as well. I'm not trying sound depressive, just stating that a lot of symptoms overlap unfortunately. Sadness, feeling of worthlessness, and low self-esteem are some pretty big symptoms that can kick you while your down.
Constantly worrying about what people think of you can keep you hiding your true self underneath. Self-esteem is how we view our own self-worth, and all the positive things that we are proud of. I believe that working on our self-confidence helps us greater.
Self-confidence is the feeling we have when we accept ourselves as a whole. The good with the bad, if you have to view it that way. By accepting who you are, all of who you are, you can actually find some inner peace.
While it sounds incredibly cheesy, being able to accept your social anxiety will help you be at ease with it. Once you're at ease with what is a part of you, you can work at changing habits in a calmer state of mind. Acceptance is a powerful emotion, all you have to do is to let it work for you.
Another great tactic to boost your self-confidence involves a mirror. Look yourself in the eyes, and tell yourself 'I Love You'. Mean it when you say it, or fake it if you have to. Do this every morning or night, whatever time works best for you.
Both of these methods are powerful mind tools, because they can help you subconsciously change the way you think. To think positively about yourself. When you feel great about yourself, you are great, and nobody can take that away from you.
If you don't think positively, it won't matter what your neighbor, or a loved one thinks of you. You can be the nicest person in the world, but if you don't believe it yourself, people are going to be able to tell. By just looking people in the eyes, and being able to smile, you show them a happy side that they are going to want to get to know.
But more than doing this for other people, you should do this for yourself. Everyone is worth something, and you have the right to feel worthy and confident as much as anyone else.
I dare you to think of three things that you have proudly accomplished. How accomplishing these things made you feel good about yourself. You should be able to feel like that every day. And it starts with loving yourself.
