Hi
What you’re feeling is very common and falls under social anxiety, where facing interviews or talking to new people feels overwhelming. It’s not about lacking skills but more about the fear of being judged, making mistakes, or not being good enough. This fear makes you avoid situations where you have to interact or perform, even though deep down you might want to be more open. Feeling shy is natural, but when it starts affecting important areas like interviews, it needs gentle intervention—not forceful pushing.
With therapy, you can learn confidence-building techniques, work on negative self-beliefs, and practice gradual exposure to social situations in a safe way. You don’t need to become a loud extrovert to succeed, you only need to feel comfortable being yourself. Take therapy, and you can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.
Let me ask you—what is the one thought that comes to your mind when you imagine giving an interview?

Hi, I appreciate that you reached out with your concern.
If you feel fearfulness for attending exam interview, I recommend you to incorporating calming practices such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness, and progressive muscle relaxation into your daily routine. These techniques can help regulate your body’s stress response.
Also, aim to maintain a nutritious diet, engage in light physical activity as tolerated, and prioritize restorative sleep.
If this still persist, then consult clinical psychologist for the same.
Next Steps
