Suffer from Social Anxiety?

Social anxiety or social phobia is quite a common issue in the UK. Many people suffer from anxiety and so it can help to know that you are not alone. Social anxiety can sometimes seem overwhelming and prevent you from enjoying living your life to the fullest.

Anxiety can be caused by many situations, experiences and events. What makes one person anxious will not necessarily have the same effect on another person. It may be that your perception of your situation, based on your past life experiences is playing a part in your current feeling of anxiety.

Social Anxiety Disorder Symptoms

While we are all different, generally the following discriptions are applicable to social anxiety:-

Feelings that others are always judging you
Worried about other people’s thoughts about you
Fear of feeling uncomfortable, awkward or self conscious with other people
Anxiety about embarrassing yourself or being embarrassed by others
Excessive worry before and after an event (eg, wedding, party, etc)
Sweating, blushing, shaking, nausea

There are other symptoms too that you might be able to relate to.

Social Anxiety and Hypnotherapy

It is important that you should seek the advice of your doctor. Hypnotherapy haa been used to help reduce stress and bring a great sense of relaxation. For any form of anxiety self hypnosis is a great relaxation process that can be learnt in one session of hypnotherapy. I usually teach you self hypnosis in the first session. If you practice self hypnosis regularly it can play an effective role in feeling less stressed and tense in those social situations.

I met Steve Harold for help some years back after the most traumatic event of waking from a coma and finding my body had been crushed to some degree in a very near fatal head on road accident. To say I was a mess, is a massive understatement. Police were told that night to expect a maximum of 2 hours of life with how I was! Everything that mattered, from career, to relationship, to physical abilities were marred or gone. And I had to survive the onslaught of extensive post trauma and a 5 year legal battle over losses and blame. Steven was one crucial element in a very emotional rebuilding process that moved me to where I am today. His many professional skills and encouraged appointments built my mind and spirit to a place which kept me surviving, as the years to gain my innocence alone would leave many crumbling. To anyone who can relate to this, Steve's help was a key element in the early rebuilding stages that has made me smile at life again, had me keep going through something that seemed like an eternity to go through. Weirdly, I am doing things with my life again, I would never had thought possible, from the physical to work interests. I have beaten all medical prognosis expectations. One thing this has taught me is that the first step is always with the person it is about (you) and if you need to 'lean' on people such as Steve Harold, rest assured, more steps to where you need to be in your life will come with his standard and coached direction. I am a mark of his abilities to help an individual. And if ever I start smoking, I'll use him too to stop! Thank you as always Steven.

I tried to give up smoking many times, doing the usual methods (read the book, abstained&failed) and never really gave up, after a beer I'd be smoking again. I then met Harold who tailored a session based on my needs and after one session I gave up, completely. Prior to my session I was a sceptic, however my success and the subsequent success of others that I know that went to Harold, proves that his method and process works. I would highly recommend seeing him.

I had been smoking cigarettes for 25 years when I made the decision that, even though I liked smoking, I wanted to stop. And that was the problem - I liked it, I just didn't want to do it anymore, and therefore I didn't feel I had the willpower to stop. A friend recommended Steve to me, the timing was perfect, so I booked in one session. I smoked all the way there in the car, I left, I felt no different, I didn't even particularly feel like I had made a change, but I threw away the remainder of my packet of cigarettes and I have never smoked again - that was 18 months ago. It has been EASY. I haven't had one moment of wanting a cigarette. I don't know why anyone would put themselves through trying to do it on their own when one session with Steve makes it SO easy. Steve helped me change my life - I could not recommend him more.
