Has anyone ever over come blushing

[Rayray27]

I just seem to be gettin worse everyday. Has anyone ever overcome it

[Richy626]

I overcame it! And did so a few years back!

I did it through counselling and I started to understand that it's a actually a good quality to have as people find it easy to relate to and empathise with.

And the opposite sex can find it an attractive quality when people blush as it shows you aren't a totally closed book emotionally!

Another thing people don't think about the fact you blushed even half as much as you do, even when they make comments they forget about it within a minute or 2, while you're still worrying about what they could be thinking.

I used to be trapped by it even blushed for no reason in my room, it can and will be overcome I'm living proof of it couldn't care less if I blush now.

I did some CBT but mostly it was therapeutic counselling so going back into my past and my current circumstances with family etc.

Are u a girl? I'm a guy and it was difficult to accept it as an attractive quality to have for me as girls tend to prefer manly men so to speak.

When a girl blushes I find it really sweet haha doubt I'm the only one. X

Yes I'm a girl. I'm blushing a lot in work. 1 fella asked me out a year ago I blush every time I see him. And another fella who winks at me I blush all d time I walk by. I don't fancy these fellas. But because I always blush I'm thinking they think I fancy them. I know it sounds so crazy. I created all these thoughts in me head meself 😂😂😂. I'm in counselling 4 weeks. The counsellor has me doing finger holds, tapping and talking about my past. Did you do this

Hi I used to blush loads I was really upset because of it. I'd even blush when having a cuppa with my mum.. I went to doctor for totally different reason as was getting anxiety and not sleeping and I got put on a low dose of tablets.. anyway they cured my blushing.. I don't know why maybe I was bit happier/confident or something! I hope u come through it x

Thank you Charlie. Do u know the name of the tablets your on. My doctor gave me anti depressants but they made me really sick they wore clitopram I think that's how to spell it.
