Idea how to kill social anxiety is an act of self abuse, self hatred and self rejecting. It will lead to mental illness called borderline disorder. Social anxiety is not fear of being judged or humiliated - this is byproduct. Social anxiety is fear of criticism and scrutiny. So there is punishment, contempt element - found in abuse. Narcissistic abuse. Brain is stuck in overdrive due to trauma of being abused and being in toxic ambient like living in shame culture country. Understanding our triggers - will not help with social anxiety - being prepared is anxiety itself. Challenging intrusive thoughts lead to more of worry - known as Pink Elephant Effect, Ironic processing theory. There are a lot of predatory personalities who are very focused on abusing others. Idea of pathologizing our reactions and modes of survival leads to telling ourselves that we do not matter. That our experiences are not important. That is self hatred. Exposure is like being afraid of fire and we want to face fear but in the same time we are soaked in oil, petrol: fire will ignite it and burn us alive. Oil, petrol is toxic shame being internalized. Idea of killing social anxiety is toxic shame being internalized. Toxic people are abusing us - and that is the source of social anxiety. It is not called narrative anxiety. Anxiety stems from social element: toxic people.
