Ultimately the cure is more social exposure. Conversation is a skill that can be trained.
Physically, don't tighten your stomach when you talk. That's a common anxiety response that shortens your breath. If your enunciation is poor, work on that.
Mentally, your ego is huge and holding you back. It's what causes you to cringe and shame yourself days, weeks after social encounters that didn't go well. Learn how to kill your ego.
Just keep this in mind: the key part of interacting is 'acting'.
Yeah I feel like I sound illiterate and it hurts my ego. I know I dont know everything but the stuff that I do know, that's what I take pride in and feel like sh*t when I can't explain it. Especially how people are so quick to judge and first impressions are everything, I feel as if I have no chance of redeeming myself.
But I am trying to talk to people more and go up to them, and just do what you said, "act." Not in a fake way but just relax and be in the loop cause I have a problem where I feel like I put myself out of the loop and you know what they say, how you see yourself is how everyone else sees you. So by mentally putting myself in the loop, everyone will be on the same page and its actually worked.
IIN to not know how to explain things?
