Anyone know why this happens? I get anxious alot..Why can't I eat in front of friends?
Ok, sometimes your brain likes to trick you, makes you think automatic thoughts, like I'm the ugliest person on earth even though you're pretty or I will die if I board a plane.. etc.
So you have to take control!
You says that you're anxious, and as I see it the worst scenario would be that you threw up. That is the worst thing that could happen. Ask yourself how big is that chance you do?
Second, what would make you feel better in the situation?
Have you talked to your parents or friend about this?
What causes the anxiousness?
Is it that your are afraid of throwing up, or is it something else?
Sometimes when you're anxious you feel sick, it might sound harsh but the only thing to do is to stay in the "moment" to see what happens. Take deep breaths. You can think of a scale from 1 to ten, if ten is the worst and say that right now is a 10, take 2 deep breaths and feel again, is it a 9 or still a 10?
Sometimes you need help before it gets worse. I think you should talk to your friend and paretns abou it.
Good luck and happy birthday!Why can't I eat in front of friends?
dunno tbh. it happens to my friend. she used to suffer from panic attacks and i don't think there's much you can do about it other than counselling.. but it's a pretty small thing to get it for :/ so i don't think there's a lot you can do except tell yourself you won't embarrass yourself. :)
mine?

you are nervous. Just eat little bites of food and try to relax. If you don't eat it all just say you were really excited about your birthday and take it home to eat later in private. You might want to think of other activities for your birthday in the future like bowling or dancing and just eat with your family.Why can't I eat in front of friends?
aw. you have anxiety.
dont worry this happens to me too actually
except i have a fear of throwing up :/
but you can't let this control you and not let you have fun.
eat small bites not too much and not too fast.
i promise you'll be fine.
live your life right? (:
have funn and happy birthday:DD
I can't eat in front of my friends either, it's just the constant fear that you might have a repeat of what has happened in the past.
Just try stay calm, and everything will be fine.
If you start feeling wierd, count to ten in your head, or say the ABC's.
