I feel uncomfortable to socialise in a large group of people

Dear User, I understand how you feel uncomfortable socializing in large groups of people. It can be overwhelming to be surrounded by so many people and to feel like you don't belong or don't know what to say. It's okay to feel this way, and it's important to take care of yourself and your needs in social situations. From a Buddhist perspective, it's important to recognize that our thoughts and feelings are impermanent and not a reflection of our true self. We can observe our discomfort without judgment and practice compassion towards ourselves and others. We can also use mindfulness techniques to ground ourselves in the present moment and focus on our breath or surroundings instead of our anxious thoughts. From a psychological perspective, it may be helpful to explore the root of your discomfort in social situations. Is it due to past experiences or a fear of judgment from others? Identifying these underlying factors can help you develop coping strategies and build your confidence in social situations. You can also try exposure therapy by gradually exposing yourself to larger groups of people and practicing social skills. As a coach, I encourage you to take small steps towards socializing in larger groups. Start by attending events with a friend or joining a group that aligns with your interests. Focus on building connections with one or two people at a time, rather than feeling like you need to interact with everyone in the group. Remember to be kind to yourself and celebrate your progress, no matter how small.
