This evening, I had to phone three people I'd never called before - practically a first for me, as I hate even phoning people I know. Surprisingly, I wasn't actually that anxious beforehand, and I managed to get through it...it hit me afterwards, though. I kept going through what I'd said and kept thinking how badly it went, how much I hate phones, how they must think I'm a complete idiot now... My therapist has mentioned anticipatory anxiety, but not this. Does it happen to anyone else? It's so frustrating, because there's nothing I can do about it.
