Overcoming Social Anxiety and Shyness Quotes

“Self-consciousness comes from focusing your attention inwards, on to yourself, so that you become painfully aware of what is happening to you. At its worst, self-consciousness dominates your attention and makes it difficult to think of anything else but your inner experience – and this can become totally paralyzing.”
― Gillian Butler, Overcoming Social Anxiety and Shyness, 1st Edition: A Self-Help Guide Using Cognitive Behavioral Techniques
