Happens to me each Monday. I give college students lectures and being in front of scrutinizing eyes is a very difficult situation for me that activates the shame spiral. I remember one day I was so hurt and vulnerable I couldn't even raise my voice and I kept attached to the whiteboard and never turning toward the students. I don't know the eye contact for me is a major problem that devolves into social anxiety. The rest of the day I spend in a very depressive posture.
