Need some tips on confrontation anxiety. I've been dreading a difficult talk I might have soon, and the anxiety just made me procrastinate all evening 🙄 There have to be ways to work with it, right? I usually fight anxiety by finding a solution to the problem, but this time I don't see a problem to solve.

I currently work as a customer service rep. As an aspie and a massive introvert, talking to random strangers every day for 8 hours straight gives me terrible social anxiety. Honestly, the best way I could find to deal with it is to go with the punches and get used to the feeling.

I know that's not super helpful, but it really comes down to exposure therapy; you find enough opportunities to expose yourself to the trigger, the less anxious you'll be overtime. The anxiety never truly goes away, but it does become tolerable after a while.
