Do you fear approaching groups of people?

why do you fear approaching groups of people

There is no myth behind fear of approaching groups of people, lacking self confidence or suffering from inferiority complex could be the main reason for fear of approaching groups.

When you approach the groups you usually put much emphasis on how are they going to judge you and so feel self conscious and even afraid. Again putting much weight pf what people will think of you may be rooted to inferiority or lack of self confidence.

how to get over fear of approaching groups of people?

Do you wonder why do you fear much groups of people while have much less fear when approaching one person?

Simply because you deal with the group as if it was a one person, you think that all of the people in that group will think of you in the same way, judge you in the same way or have the same thoughts.

But the reality is that each one of those people have got his own unique thoughts, yes they may appear rigid and bound together but underneath that fearfull appearance everyone is living in his own world, each one will have his own idea about you and each one will build a different impression about you than the others.

If you can read their minds you may find that one of them actually feared you, the other may have though of you as a nice or respectable person, while the third may have not gave an attention to you.

If you want to deal with this kind of fears, fix your personal problems first, and while doing that, don’t think of groups as one unit, think of them as different people standing together. i invented this technique and called it the group seperation technique.
