How does one control his subconsciousness? I have social anxiety. With that I mean I feel tension and am short of breath when around other people.
I think it's subconscious because in my mind I know it's bullshit, I'm smart. I despise most people for their stupidity and I really don't give a shit what people think about me. However I keep feeling these bad emotions that I cannot control. Causing me to fail socially. Any solutions Sup Forums?

"I despise most people for their stupidity and I really don't give a shit what people think about me."
This is why you feel bad feelings around people
Anthony Diaz
Also. The tension and short of breath I have are not extreme. But bad enough that I fail socially. The tension can really fuck me over causing me to be busy with myself trying to control it.
Wyatt Bell
You're a failure
Justin Scott
wow
Asher Cruz
I was pointing out that I am not in a position of weakness, insecurity or think I'm vulnerable. But still feel the emotions (tension, short of breath) that fits with it.

It means you are a weak faggot. Pull yourself together or die, period.

You care a lot more about what people think of you than you'd like to admit. Being in denial about it isn't gonna help anything.
Brody Mitchell
I am aware of this. This is why I want to control the seemingly uncontrollable. But how?
Gabriel Nguyen

you're just afraid
David Stewart
remember that you will die , your friends die , your enemies will die , your family will die , everything passes , everything ends , everything disappears , it makes no sense to worry about being good socially , just be .

>I despise most people for their stupidity and I really don't give a shit what people think about me.
Great, you're another diamond dozen edgy teenager twat. Maybe you should start lording yourself over other people when you're less off a miserable waste of space. I mean for fuck sakes, you said it yourself, you're a failure.
Ryan Garcia
I hope you outlive your firstborn
Landon James
Alright. Let's say you're right (you're not), how does one stop caring about what other people think then?
Btw, I have already rationalized that caring what people think about you is worthless (excluding people you are dependant on or love)
Gavin Hernandez
therapy?
Zachary Ross
you obviously do care what people think of you but this belief is egodystonic, so you try to supress it and this causes friction and you end up with tension
James Nguyen
I'd say exposure therapy, but what do I know? I'm an idiot on a chinese image board.

Then how does one become fearless? Yeah but meanwhile I'm still alive I would like to do fun things you know, instead of just being a loner. ugh. fucking therapy, really? Any tips concerning this exposure therapy? Like what the fuck am I supposed to do, take a shit on a public street? Maybe you're right. So how the fuck do I stop caring about what people think of me? Or how do I just get rid of this tension?

OP thinks he's better than most ppl. Sounds to me that's he's an asshole.
Daniel Wright
a lot of exposure is about learning what exactly sets of the negative emotions and coping strategies. Both of these are kind of hard to do over the internet, so maybe go see a shrink once a week?

user, you need to move. Go somewhere else and be someone else. Let all that bullshit be gone. I've done it when I've changed jobs and stuff. I wasn't as bad as you, but there was some stuff I needed to change so I did. Kind of like starting with a clean slate.
Henry Bennett
Welcome to the club OP! You'll never amount to anything.
Chase Cooper
not sure, man I had a similar problem but it sort of just lifted on its own with time
Aiden Scott
I hear a .38 cures it. Try it OP.

A shrink is not an option for me. Got any other ideas?
David Brooks

Jeremiah King
Agreed. OP posed his personality as the hyperintelligent man who is so much better than other people. Being unable to connect with other people on a humane level, now he has to fear every time he meets someone that his superiority complex will fall apart. Good luck, user, hopefully a ou will realize in few years how full of shit you are now :)
I used to be similar to you. What a fkn idiot... /thread
Gabriel Cooper
Hypnosis, positive reinforcement, breath control and I forgot what it's called for psychological disorders, but essentially immunotherapy.
Austin Powell

Jaxon Young
Ok, maybe go to public places, like stores or parks or whatever, and just be there. When you start to feel negative emotions, leave. Go home and do something you enjoy. Repeat the next day. Also, exercise is good.
Angel Flores
I know the feeling. Try to relax and don't dwell on your failures, learn to joke about it and realise that even the most social people stick their foot in their mouth all the time, they're just better at getting over it
Christopher Reed
I wonder--what kind of retard comes to a site like Sup Forums and asks for help on controlling his/her/its subconsciousness.

what has worked for me: separate your consciousness in three "you". Start by making all of you think the same way. Then, after you are able to control your new 3 personalities, try to think they all give you different perspectives on the situation that you are currently facing. If you feel like falling into madness because you think you may lose control of your multiple personalities, imagine yourself next to them, bigger and giving orders. THen imagine them telling you that after all, you are all one. This while imagining that you all merge into one again. Once you are able to control all of the thre and live a normal life at the same time, you will notice that your problem is nothing else than one of the multiple subconscious options that you have at the moment of the interaction. But, now you have other 3 to choose consciously. This can help you with many things. I managed to be successful at my job without the people under me hating me, got some "friends" and no longer think that there is such thing as "not caring" about other's opinions. After all, the way that your environmet develops, will affect the way that you act, think, and perceive everything. If you are unable to control your multiple personalities, you may seek professional help. It shouldnt be too much of a problem.

OP you're a fag. Stop trying to feel better than everybody else. You're like us, faggots.
Jason Jackson
meh.
Carter Reed
Let's be quick about that: rationalizing and trying to "control" everything does not work. By trying to control everything, you will make yourself a neurotic fag. The way is to accept that you have weaknesses and no one will bite of your head if you admit that.
You might be surprised how other people would react if you were able to tell them about your struggles. No one will bite yiur head off and feed on you. The control you arr trying to exert all the time makes you, obvoiusly, to fear that you will lose it.
Easton Roberts
What have you been smoking?
Landon Jones
Stop thinking you're better than everyone cunt..
Liam Wilson
Repression doesn't work.
Relinquishing wrong feelings after understanding why they are toxic does work.
>I'm smart. I despise most people for their stupidity
You are a vain self-centered twat who, if genuinely "smart" would be capable of introspection.
Since you won't study philosophy to obtain a useful outlook on life,I have to agree with the previous poster on the .38 to the dome.
Place barrel against palate, pull trigger. We all die and you'll be spared a life of self-inflicted suffering.
Jordan Myers
sounds reasonable.
Christian Martin
goddammit fuck you op
Caleb Morales
You're lying to yourself, you do care whateveryone thinks of you and are afraid of failing. I am guilty of the same, just relax and dont give in to your anxiety, its a vicious cycle
Grayson Gutierrez
You do care user. Or else you wouldn't have asked her to begin with. Your afraid of being second best so you act like your tough shit, but when someone or any group comes up to you, you start reacting the way you do because internally your freaking out, wondering whether or not youre hot shit or just a piece of shit. With the lack of human contact, I'd guess the latter
Asher Reed

I had the same. I went to a therapist, after a month we managed to get somewhere. Try it OP

Meth is much better but both are n eurotoxins that will gimp your ability to socialize in the long run, best to not rely on it more than absolutely necessary
Camden Ortiz
just remember to relax. I was trying this for years but only succeeded when i noticed that rather than trying to deny the way that i was, i accepted myself and others. I still have problems, but at least now i can sleep at night knowing that i am doing something to face these problems. I am not perfect, but i dont have to be. Take it easy and clear your mind a little some times. Existing is enough with life.

I used to have this exact issue. It disappeared when i got my first girlfriend. I dont know if thats advice, but its all i got.
