Is it normal to be afraid of being judged?

I know almost everyone has this fear, but the difference is it stops me from living. Like it terrifies me to get a facebook, or to text guys, or to wear fashionable clothes, or to sign up for sports, or just talking to people in general. Everything I do I know people are gonna judge me whether i do it good or not. And I never really do anything good, so I just don't even try. Is this normal..?

    The weird thing is, people will judge you more harshly if you judge yourself harshly or expect to be judged.

    I know plenty of people who would be judged a lot more if they looked like they cared. The happier you are with yourself, the less likely someone is to look at you and find fault.

    Yes it's normal but soon you'll realize that it's because you ate judgmental yourself. It's not about what you are it's about what you think you aren't. Be fearless, have fun, don't take life to seriously and just do it. You ARE that girl.

  • good winners have to learn how to lose as well. it makes them successful.
    don't worry about the small stuff for now, the clothes the styles the friends and such. think ahead and have a plan for the future. you can still socialize and go with guys and have fun , but your plan comes first. if you cant decide look at grads pay and pick one. just an idea good luck
