Fear of Embarrassment.

by Charlotte
(Kent England)

Is it normal to walk outside and dread others looking at you?

I have to watch my step incase I fall over, I don't think I would be able to cope I made an idiot of myself in public.

I cannot do public readings, I shake, stammer and I usaully find that I if I try to sleep knowing that I will have to make myself known, I probably won't sleep that night.

I'm paranoid that other people are watching me talking about me behind my back and it impacts on me. I find it hard to trust people and I'm secretive because if I tell people what I feel I think they'll tell somebody else embarassing me further.

I have a happy life and I don't want it to be ruined by this.

Is there anybody that can give advice?
