Is it normal i want to view people differently?

Is it normal that I'm trying to change the way I view people. I'm trying to change my shy habits. What I've gotten so far is to be in the moment. Feel the energy being created by the environment. Also not to think so much about the other persons opinion. I somewhat feel more comfortable around people. One night I took a bunch of sleeping pills to make me dream while I was awake basically realistic hallucinations. Also it basically makes you dream and you miss out on the deep sleep. So the next day I felt like shit. But I noticed a huge difference in the way I "saw" people down the hall at school. Before I was shy and couldn't look at people in the eye walking down the hall. But that day all I saw was a bunch of kids socializing in a hall and I felt SO comfortable. It didn't even feel like what school normally felt to me.

So basically how can I keep changing until I view everyone like this? I absolutely hate being shy. I want to loose all my shy habits.

  • It's true, if people see/perceive you as being more relaxed and approachable, then they will respond in a positive manner, which in turn affects how you perceive them. It's a cycle.

    Adversely, if you are a stormy little raincloud around others, they won't want to be around you, and you will interpret their avoidance negatively and internalize those feelings... which creates more storming little raincloud. :)

    If you want to break out of your shy habits then I think you're in the right direction. But I don't think you need drugs to make people more tolerable.

  • They best way to be more social is to not care what they think.

      Easier said than done.

      Some people are super thick skinned others get called something soft like stupid and they just fall over and die.

    I understand that I shouldn't use drugs. I just find it mind blowing how differently I saw people, Like my social anxiety was 100% gone. All I saw was a bunch of kids thrown in a school together. Beginning of school everyone is nervous because they don't know what to expect. I felt like I wouldn't been nervous anymore because I already knew what to expect, "bunch of kids thrown in a school together"
