  1. I have pretty bad social anxiety myself and I can say meditation has become a very good tool for recognizing thoughts. I watched How To Stop Caring What People Think Of You video before but it didnt stick like I wanted it to but I feel now that I am used to mediating I can see how much the want for validation hauts my mind on a constant bases. I think meditation is a way of assisting you with your thinking. Good luck on your journey.
  2. I have been caring about what people think about me all my life and it haunts me. I have had severe social anxiety for many years, I can't even handle the smallest bit of criticism and I am a people pleaser. This video has had a big impact on me, as I analyze my thoughts now I recognize how much of my life has been dedicated to people pleasing and it is actually quite overwhelming. Apart from writing my thoughts down or expressing my thoughts, there's not much I can think to do to try to change. I am actually very anxious because I just want this desperate want for validation to leave my mind. Are there some strategies apart from what Im doing that could be helpful? Any tips would be much appreciated.
