(This is more social anxiety than ocd question) So in several months I will be doing a very nerve racking performance (just hypothetically let’s say it’s a piano recital ) I want to do really well and not be over taken by nerves. If anybody has any tips to work my way up to not being anxious around people I’d love that

Imagine the good things about it. If you tell yourself you’ll do bad, you will. If you’re positive and be excited for it you’ll nail it! Come back in a few months and update me I wanna know how it goes!!!

I bring a little comfort item on stage. Can be a really supportive teacher’s pic tucked into sheet music. Can be a simple as a ring tied to someone who loves you.
