Social Anxiety? - Maybe You're An Empath
Yo yo my Steemies, wattup?
Social anxiety seems to be on the rise.
Do you suffer from social anxiety?
Have you ever considered that maybe there's nothing wrong with you?
That what you're experiencing, is actually a perfectly sane response, to living in a world that's gone insane?
As an empath myself, energetic hygiene, is essential, to getting through life, with a positive attitude.
In today's vlog, I talk about all of this.
Peace.

Haha I usually only get those empathic feelings after taking mushrooms lol.
This was an interesting video and it isn't an angle on the issue that I had considered before. I have total social anxiety in a lot of interactions, myself. I can't really say what the cause is but I have learned to compensate a little bit over the years.
Psilocybin is actually a great facilitator, under guidance, for working on an empathic level :)
Peace.
Haha I can't say that I had much guidance in those days but there were some pretty weird "goings-on" with my mushroom trips.
More strange than the sense of other people's emotions was a shared sense of being pulled to the same point in a room among the group of psychonauts. I actually wrote about that a few months ago. Anyway, it was often so strong and real (I guess) that we could all point to the same spot without telling each other where we thought it was.
Yes, that's how mushrooms communicate :)
I'm guessing, based on your comment, that you'd be familiar with what Terrence McKenna had to say on the subject?
Peace.
A bit but I am probably not as familar with his work as I should be given the amount of time I spend talking about tripping lol. But yeah I know a little bit about him trying to talk to the mushrooms and the timewave and all that. His brother is an interesting guy too. I just watched him on Joe Rogan's podcast not too long ago, in fact.
Good stuff :)
I have listened to a few old skool coast to coast episodes with Dennis.
Peace.
Great video Bob! I'd love to see you do a podcast with Sam on this subject. I'm autistic so my emotions are through the roof with social anxiety. This is why on days that I do go to town, I just stick to myself and not ever talk to anyone. I just people watch. Communication is 60% body language. I can read people just by watching them.
We did touch on this, as part of something else, way back in the early days. i'm sure we could expand on this though in a future episode :)
Peace.
As requested :)

Hey where's your Australian bush hat, perfect setting for one!
oh, what's an empath?
An empath is someone who picks up on the emotions transmitted by other people.
I'm more of a ball cap/snapback person myself :)
Peace.
oh ok like most females are naturally? lol. I don't understand that last sentence, is that an Aussie thing?
Ball cap and snapback, are 2 types of peaked hat.
Google "snapback cap" That's the type I wear in my vlogs.
Peace.
