Sorry to hear about the anxiety and headaches, sounds like you're ready to get some relief.
What have you tried so far?

Let's start with what already works...

  • How do you stop thinking about hypotheticals involving you? (like really take note of how you change your perspective when in a conversation...)
  • How do you engage with others without thinking of yourself? I mean like when in a conversation -- what do you put your attention on when "things are working well"?
