In this episode, we are talking about the unique challenges and pressures that we face in social settings within our own community. The Gay Men’s Brotherhood is dedicated to helping gay men connect and build more authentic and meaningful relationships, but this is particularly challenging for those who feel anxious in groups of gay men.
We'll share our personal experiences and the coping strategies we've developed to manage and overcome social anxiety. Topics discussed today are:
- Types and levels of social anxiety
- Reasons why group situations trigger anxiety
- Strategies for coping in social situations
- How nerves can manifest in physical symptoms
- The power of self-talk and inner dialogue
- Opportunities for connection within our community
Our goal is to provide you with practical advice and insights so you can more actively engage in our community events and form deeper connections with others.
