I have my “script” I have practiced over and over and over again. Everytime I meet a new person I say the exact same thing, the exact same way. “Hi it’s nice to meet you I’m ____” I don’t let people ask me my name I do it right away to have a sense of control. Psych myself up to it do it and just do it. If I linger and think about it and let them ask me “what’s your name?” My blood pressure will plummet and I won’t say it.
