Hi lovely,
Sometimes the fear of other people's reaction can cause us to feel anxious because we worry how they will view us and that we will be judged. This is a super common thought process for those of us that feel anxious! And even for people that don't suffer from anxiety.
When I'm in this state I try to ask myself is it true and do I have any evidence that it's happening? I try not to future think too much as that's also part of my anxiety but sometimes I do try to figure out if a particular scenario comes up how will I react/what's the worst that can happen?
It's hard to break the habit of being worried about what others think. It takes practice but you can absolutely get past this.
Hope you're feeling a bit better about it today.
