I stuggle with eye contact. I am, in most ways a very confident person. Other parts to me however are quite anxious, and have low self esteem. THis discomfort to make eye contact has really drilled into my subconscious, and i find it incredibly hard to escape. Keep in mind, if i feel alpha in a situation, i dont have this eye contact issue. I have the eye contact issue when i am in state of anxious feelings. I would say the struggle with eye contact comes down to an mental and emotional state of anxiety. Really sad and dissapointing that people have to go through this. Why do people have to feel uncomfortable, simply to connect and converse...
