Eye contact on a simple walk


9 years ago 0 60 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Since puberty, when increased self-awareness, I started to having anxious feelings when a person cross eye contact on a simple walk on a street with me. I Become with muscle tension, heart pressure everytime I have to look on the eyes of a stranger (all kind if people). This happens all the time with a simple walk, were I have not to start any conversation. I know people look just because we are in the same street path. This is very unpleasent and don´t allow me to joy a simple activity like this.
I tryed to challenge this anxious thought (feeling observated), but couldn´find and answer that allow me to relax at the moment.
