I feel like it's a double edged sword because there's the potential your initial interactions cause negative reinforcement and you end up worse than when you started, might work though if you aren't subhuman

I have horrible social anxiety and think it's not cope, exposing myself to situations where I have to talk with people makes me better at it, at least temporarily

I am neither chad nor subhuman. 6' 2 white normie. Almost all my lays girls approached me here and there I approached but compare to the average nt normie it doesn't even count. For example, I go to the club 2-3 times a month and every time I get approached by girls on the dancefloor but I believe if I approach I will get better looking girls. Also, drinking doesn't work for me it makes me low inhib but also makes my English A2 tier so it gives me another reason not to approach nice coping skills I guess.

I see well seems like you're doing fine. I'm not one to give social advice as I'm NEET and unattractive but it'd probably work if you have a level of looks to attract a girl and follow through

No it’s not
It is.


Exposure therapy is a psychological treatment that was developed to help people confront their fears. When people are fearful of something, they tend to avoid the feared objects, activities or situations.

He is anxious of social situations. Exposing himself to these situations will over time defeat the fear. This is exposure therapy

I wasn't this high inhib before. I started smoking weed 5 years ago and I was getting strong side effects sometimes like paranoia. I stopped 3 years ago but I think it fucked my brain up.

many such cases, it made me paranoid for a while too, your brain isn’t permanently fucked it’ll just take more effort

I hope man. I don't understand how that shit is legal in most states. Almost all smokers I've met are losers or weird.
 
be careful with it as repeated negative exposure is traumatic, and will ultimately hinder your progress, and make you more anxious

Your best bet is to looksmax to at least LTN/MTN and then start progressively exposing yourself to new social situations
