Does wearing SUNGLASSES reduce SOCIAL ANXIETY for you?
I googled this phenomenon and it seems on socialanxiety forums and on reddit/r/socialanxiety theres A LOT of people who claim wearing SUNGLASSES reduces their SOCIAL ANXIETY. Ive seen similiar claims with face protection masks before aswell
The idea is that when you wear SUNGLASSES then you feel like "people cant see through your emotions" considering since "eyes are the window to your soul". So its like with SUNGLASSES you are hiding your emotions and this reduces social anxiety for some people. Especially people who have the kinda social anxiety where they feel selfconcious about their facial expressions, they get reduced social anxiety from SUNGLASSES
What are your thoughts?
