Hi Thanks for reaching out. You have fear of many things. Your childhood was not good. You mentioned you could have social anxiety, fear of being judged and shame. You are not able to identify what is causing these fears. It sounds like you are bottling up thoughts and feelings. You want to talk about what you are going through with someone.. You mentioned childhood and other experiences have increased fear. You are not an introvert and you are not shy. You are probably withholding a lot inside. Consult a psychologist and explain about your fears. Psychotherapy is an effective treatment to overcome fears.. With a psychologist you can talk about your thoughts, feelings, and emotions. A psychologist will guide you on how you can gradually work on overcoming fear. Overcoming fears is a gradual process and it will take time. It is important to be kind to yourself and not allow your fears to have control over your life.

Firstly it's important to address what is something which has been bothering you so much since your childhood and this can help you and the psychologist for the next step.

From what you’ve described, your fears are not due to shyness or personality. They appear to be a long-standing anxiety pattern where your mind has learned to stay alert and expect danger, especially around people, judgment, and self-image. Because this fear has been present for many years, it has slowly affected your confidence and made you doubt yourself, even though this is not how you were by nature. The reason your anxiety increases when you “try harder” is because fear does not reduce through effort or force. When the mind feels pressured to overcome fear, it becomes more alert, which increases anxiety. This also explains why meditation helps you feel calmer temporarily but does not reduce the fears themselves. The fears did not appear suddenly and are not your fault — they are learned responses that can be unlearned with the right approach.

Hi Depending upon the severity of your symptoms one can decide whether you need only therapy or medicines also. Your symptoms do indicate social phobia but u need a thorough evaluation for proper diagnosis. This platform is not sufficient to give u a serious advise without proper evaluation about what your treatment trajectory will be.

Hi, according to your question, you have idenfied the areas which may be responsible for your stress and anxiety issues. But sometimes we need someone who can see the issues from a neutral point of view and help us to resolve. A therapist or psychologist can be the person who is professional and neutral.

Try going for a Past Life Regression therapy along with counselling.

Hi, What you are experiencing sounds like long-standing anxiety with deep-rooted fears, possibly including social anxiety and fear of judgment. The fact that these fears existed even before difficult childhood experiences suggests that your nervous system may have been sensitive from an early age, and later experiences only intensified it. This is not about being introverted or shy—this is genuine anxiety that has gradually affected your confidence and sense of safety. When anxiety has been present for many years, trying harder on your own can sometimes increase it, which explains why your anxiety rises when you push yourself.

Hi, I'm sorry you're experiencing this difficult situation. It’s important to recognize that persistent fears, social anxiety, and feelings of shame can be deeply distressing, and while self-help strategies like meditation can provide some relief, they might not be enough to fully address these issues. Building confidence and reducing anxiety often require a combination of approaches. You can try practices such as gradual exposure to feared situations, positive self-talk, journaling to identify and challenge negative thoughts, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, good sleep, and balanced nutrition. However, since your fears are significantly impacting your confidence and quality of life, seeking professional help can be very beneficial. Treatments like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) are highly effective for anxiety and social fears, helping you understand and reframe negative thought patterns. In some cases, medication such as anti-anxiety or antidepressant drugs may be prescribed by a psychiatrist to help manage symptoms alongside therapy. Remember, overcoming deep-seated fears takes time and support, and reaching out for professional help is a strong and positive step toward healing.

It sounds like an anxiety disorder that has been reinforced since childhood. Long-term, generalised and social fears rarely disappear with willpower or medication alone, they need structural help such as CBT, exposure- based work and medication if anxiety is very high.

Hi... Please consult a Psychiatrist for a medical diagnosis before attributing these symptoms to your past. I believe you're suffering from a type of anxiety disorder/condition. I do not want to comment more based on an online query. Sometimes pre-natal or early childhood experiences do camouflage and manifest in the form of anxiety, panic, and stress response, but attributing all symptoms without a proper medical diagnosis is not right. If you are suffering from social anxiety, fear of being judged, shame, etc. the treatment will be mainly therapeutic. CBT works well in such cases. If you are diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, a combination of medications and psychotherapy will work well. Please do not self diagnose based on reading random queries or articles online, it takes years of education and work experience to reach to a correct prognosis/ diagnosis and treatment in a particular case. Symptoms overlap and people take time opening up and sharing what actually lies beneath their superficial explaination of their deep sufferings. Their self judgement is often clouded by shame, self doubt, and self blame, which is not the cause of their condition.

The reason it feels worse when you “try harder” is because anxiety works on a fear–control loop: the more you monitor it, fight it, or try to eliminate it, the more the nervous system stays activated.Your confidence is not gone—it’s temporarily blocked by anxiety. With the right approach, anxiety is highly treatable, and many people recover fully.start taking regular sessions
