This one is about various ways my social anxiety makes me act, like:
- Not being able to make eye contact with people
-"Losing" my personality when I'm uncomfortable
-Finding it hard to focus on conversations -Talking too quietly
Talking about panic and anxiety attack
Sherry Turkle - Alone together
ndespota: One insight: being constantly "on" can erode a young person's developing sense of autonomy. Example: a kid experiences some emotionally charged event, and even before she can gather and consolidate her thoughts and feelings, she's messaging "the news" to friends. Their responses can quickly override her own responses. We see a "collaborative" rather than "autonomous" self.
