Hey everyone! I’m(20M) dealing with hesitation, especially the fear of rejection, getting scolded, or being insulted, which makes social situations tough for me. I know shyness and hesitation can overlap, but my issue feels more about overthinking and avoiding action due to these fears. I’ve been exploring natural options like Ashwagandha and Brahmi (250 mg each daily) for stress and memory.
Are there specific medicines (prescription or OTC) that target hesitation and fear of rejection/scolding better than general anxiety treatments?
Has anyone tried therapies (e.g., CBT) or supplements (e.g., L-Theanine, Magnesium) for this? Did they work?
Any personal experiences with overcoming fear of rejection or being insulted—how did you do it?
Should I consult a doctor for something stronger, or stick to natural options given my age (20) and mild symptoms?
I’m in India, so suggestions available here (with or without prescription) would be great. Please share your insights—looking for practical tips and real stories! Thanks!
