Hello doctor, I am very less socially active, a nervous beginner in conversations, and fearful of rejections. I have never achieved what I am capable of even being highly talented. I am not sure about my aim in life. All I want is to have control over my nerves and be self-confident in life no matter what the situation be. Can you help me?
Hello. You may have cluster C personality. First, learn to talk with yourself. Talk with yourself by looking into the mirror. Make eye contact with your eye in a mirror then start a conversation with friends by making eye to eye contact. Start with just a smile for a few days then start some conversation with just hello. Be confident. Do the exercise daily. If possible go for swimming and read good books. I suggest you read one book by the name "How to win friends and influence inhuman people?" by Dale Carnegie. You can get this book in many different languages. Never underestimate ownself. If you will not value yourself then no one else will value you. Develop some creative hobbies like reading, writing, and painting and accept your nature. You may be an introvert, but you are not antisocial. You like your personal space and you get tired easily with public contacts. So, cheer up. For more information consult a psychiatrist online -->
