I started to "look" at the people I was afraid were looking at me. I started staring, having more curiousity of "them" than thinking about their curiousity of me. I started forcing myself to say hello to atleast one person there, wherever I was. I stopped looking down when walking and sometimes held my head straight forward and glared even past them it seemed. This was forced at first and now it's how I get through grocery shopping or trips to the mall. I started back to church recently (boy do I need it) and before I was getting almost there my anxiety came back......I promised myself to be the first to say hello to three people there. My first visit went great, when I felt someone was looking at me, well, I looked right back at them and did you know some of them turned before I did. Hmmmmmmm maybe they had same anxiety, maybe not as much as me, but just the same it might have been there.

I live in Georgia. I meant it for you. I read your thread. Then I realized it was just a "two person" thread......I'm sorry. I hope what I said helps in some way. I will not read the other thread anymore...too much guilt, felt like I was eavesdropping! Good luck to you. I'm usually in the general room or coda room.
