想象一下，如果你有一个朋友，他不断地指出你的任何错误，那你估计会想要离他远远的。

But people with anxiety often do this to themselves so frequently that they don’t even realize it anymore.

但是焦虑的人经常这么对自己，过于频繁以致他们不再意识到这点。

They’re just not kind to themselves.

焦虑的人并不善待自己。

So perhaps it’s time to change and start forgiving ourselves for the mistakes we make.

所以也许是时候改变一下，开始原谅自己的错误。

If you feel like you’ve embarrassed yourself in a situation, don’t criticize yourself – simply realize that you have this impulse to blame yourself, then drop the negative thought and redirect your attention back to the task at hand or whatever you were doing.

如果你感觉自己出丑了，不要批评自己——只要你意识到想要批评自己的冲动，你应该放弃消极的想法，把你的注意力回到手头任务上或者任何你正在做的事情。

Another effective strategy is to “wait to worry”.

另外的有效策略就是“等待焦虑”。

If something went wrong and you feel compelled to worry (because you think you screwed up), don’t do this immediately. Instead, postpone your worry – set aside 10 minutes each day during which you can worry about anything.
