Where in my life does my confidence drop when pressure or visibility increases? My confidence drops when I meet new people. I understand that impressions go a long way, and I can be quite awkward sometimes. My fear of rejection is also VERY real. To be transparent, I get nervous that people might not want to get to know me or that they might judge me too quickly.
What physical signs tell me my nervous system is activated in those moments? My heart beats fast, and I tend to overthink (get stuck in my own head and not process what others are saying).
