Dare to Tri S1 E9

S1 E9 (12/29/21) Greetings: (all) Thought/quote of the day: (Johanna) Uncertainty is the root of anxiety. We ask ourselves questions, hoping to rely on something known: “What’s going to happen?” “What do they think of me?” “What if this goes badly?” And though we might blame our hermit-like behavior on people-hating or extreme introversion, it’s probably more than that. What we’re truly avoiding is the uncomfortable emotions that come with interacting with people like awkwardness, anxiety, boredom, and self-consciousness. Practices like ghosting are the result of bad manners and conflict avoidance. But all the negative emotion you forego ends up dumped on the other person. It’s the worst kind of outsourcing. on-screen communication allows time to compose, edit, and perfect, whereas face-to-face communication managing social media can feel like a social crisis. Social anxiety is a fear of being revealed and judged as somehow deficient we may feel a sense of relief when we can curate and control our digital lives Selfcare -Ellen Hendriksen, Ph.D.-a clinical psychologist at Boston University's Center -https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/how-be-yourself/201803/how-technology-makes-us-anxious?amp Recap of last week’s Truth/Dare: (Johanna) Truth: (Johanna) When was the last time you felt bugged or anxious?
