Blushing as a natural physical response when we are feeling embarrassed or in an situation that we are not confident in, many people who suffer from social anxiety reportable have more blushing episodes than normal. (Please note: Not everyone who blushes has social anxiety, and not every person with social anxiety blushes.)
Many situations that people report suffering from excessive blushing is when they are made the center of a group or put on the spot. Or when asked to stand in front of a group or in a social situation with the opposite sex.
These are just a hand full of the possible potential situations that cause people to suffer from some sort of social anxiety and can cause blushing.
When people blush there is often an element of surprise involved. When people blush they often become a lot more self conscious of what others may think which can then cause the blushing to increase.
For someone suffering from severe blushing it can be a horrific experience in the moment however the circumstance that set it off may or may not be that real after all.
Let me explain this a bit deeper, we respond the way we do to certain situations because of how we perceive what we think is happening due to it us viewing it from our current belief system.
Beliefs are very powerful and we see the world and respond to circumstance and situations according to what we believe. You will respond very differently if you believe that people are out to intentionally hurt you versus people are always out to help you.
There are some commonalities that cause people to blush however it can also be a vary a lot between individuals. Some people may blush more frequent when they are around the opposite sex while another standing in front of a group answering questions and talking can trigger their blushing.
Whatever the triggers are for you, there are many ways you can tackle this challenge, a very simple and highly effective way but seldom used is to simply 'don't worry about'.
I understand this may sound like a strange way to tackle a problem, just don't worry about it and let it be, however the more you can learn to just relax and go with it and focus externally on what you are doing or what you are talking about you will find the blushing can simple go away, and often with out anyone else even noticing there was a problem to begin with.
