[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have always been a blusher, but it seems to be getting worse. It happens in meetings when I speak and anytime there is attention on me. My co-workers love to point it out, making it a million times worse.  Has anyone done anything like hypnosis to make it stop. Maybe therapy?  I am open to any ideas.[/quote]

I don't have any advice, but I have the same problem and feel like it's getting worse as well.  [/quote]

I am beta blocker poster from above. Seriously, give them a try, especially if the blushing is getting worse. Mine was also getting worse because I had started thinking "Oh no, now I'm going to get nervous and blush!" even before I was talking. That made me even more anxious. It was a vicious cycle.

With the beta blockers I would still worry about being nervous or blushing, but then nothing would happen. My heart rate would stay the same, my face was cool, my voice didn't shake. After I had several successful experiences with them I didn't psych myself out anymore and I could do without them. But because I think I am just high anxiety in general after a while I needed them again. It comes and goes. I just keep a bottle and take them when I think I might need them (usually give them about an hour to take effect).

If you do try them, be sure to try them out one day at home first. It didn't happen to me but apparently they can make some people dizzy or tired or whatever.[/quote]
