How can I manage my social anxiety better?

Managing social anxiety can be challenging, but there are several strategies you can try. Have you considered practicing mindfulness or deep breathing exercises?

I've tried deep breathing, but it doesn't always help.

That's understandable. Sometimes, combining techniques can be more effective. Have you thought about gradual exposure to social situations?

What do you mean by gradual exposure?

Gradual exposure involves slowly facing your fears in a controlled way. Start with less intimidating situations and gradually work your way up to more challenging ones.

That sounds helpful! Any tips on how to start?

Sure! You could start by setting small, achievable goals, like saying hello to a neighbor or joining a small group activity.
