Does your face turn red when you get uncomfortable?
Blushing is a symptom of social anxiety. Excessive blushing is a reaction to a strong emotion caused by a situation where you feel anxious, uncomfortable or embarrassing like a presentation in front of people perhaps, meeting your date for the first time, a job interview, or having to meet lots of people at a big party. The activity of the sympathetic nervous system increases stimulating the release of adrenaline into the bloodstream. This widens blood vessels, altering and relaxing the blood vessels underneath the skin which increases the volume of blood going to the skin. It is here we experience facial redness or blushing. People with social anxiety often fear that their blushing will be seen as them being shy, nervous or as a sign of weakness.
All it takes is that one tiny situation of discomfort and you can feel the redness coming on and it is almost impossible to stop once it’s started. If excessive blushing is interfering with your life and affecting your ability to interact with others you need to get to the root of the emotional or mental reasons. Treating the cause in this way will help to make you more comfortable in that social situation. Facial blushing was so embarassing for me and it was holding me back from so much in life. However, when I learned to deal with it and face those emotions it started to get better. I noticed the more I tried to stop it the more I would experience it, I had to get to the “root” and confront the feelings I had. Self acceptance is important in the cure to blushing along with increasing ones self esteem and confidence.
Blushing is a natural reaction to emotions. The more you worry or concentrate on blushing the more it seems to reoccur, so acknowledge your feelings and try to let it go and carry on through the event. You can learn to lessen the intensity or frequency and one day you’ll notice that you don’t even worry about it anymore.
