Moonjay 07/09/18 6:49:33 PM #6:	Phone anxiety is a very real and serious thing, so don't let people shame you about it. Unfortunately the only way out of it is through it. Make phone calls until it hopefully doesn't bother you any more. I was like phone crippled for a long time until Zang forced me to make my own calls and I got over it. :P --- `Twas brillig, and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe; All mimsy were the borogoves, and the mome raths outgrabe. <cite>Moonjay posted [p:904781495] in Ugh.

Mario_VS_DK 07/09/18 8:21:06 PM #9:	Teeth posted... be a fucking adult Wow. So sorry that me having troubles with some things made you have a bad day. Muscles posted... I hate it too but just make the call anyways Yeah, like I do it anyways, and I do it fine. But my mind kind of shuts down after and I have to sit there for a good 10 minutes afterwards to come back to my senses. :s Moonjay posted...

The only one I let knock me down is myself. And I'm sure I'll get over having to make phone calls eventually. It's just frustrating now. wwinterj25 posted... I have anxiety issues 24/7. On the plus side though this has made me care less and less about the things I do because no matter what I do I'll always feel like shit. Heh. I guess that's one way to look at it. Mead posted... If it helps at all the people that answer phones talk to people that sound way more awkward and dumb than you every day, so try not to worry about how you come across Honestly, I think just about every single person I've ever talked to on the phone has been genuinely nice and helpful. I don't have any problem actually talking and I don't think I even sound awkward. It's just the initial placing/answering the call and the cooldown period afterwards. I don't even know what I'm ever worried about and I really have no idea where this anxiety even started because I didn't have this problem when I was growing up. --- How often do people read this? <cite>Mario_VS_DK posted [p:904786779] in Ugh.

I'm such a visually oriented person, so being blind to facial expressions really makes it hard sometimes to read the other person and process the information. I'm not really a visually oriented person, but I do prefer talking to people in person. It just feels easier to me. shadowsword87 posted... Dude, just use texts. That's basically all I use for DnD stuff. This call wasn't actually about DnD. I mentioned DnD because part of the reason I started to play it was to get over all this. I do all that no problem since it's all online. I have a bunch of my old applications for games so I have a base to work off of. Then most communication outside of game is already text, and then playing is easy because everyone is there to have fun, and I'm generally used to everyone after a couple sessions. It's helped to some extent, but I think it's mostly just made me develop shortcuts for it. :s --- How often do people read this? <cite>Mario_VS_DK posted [p:904795370] in Ugh. Why d...
