Problems blushing and sweating / myLot

I hate the way i feel when i talk about certain topics with people. Even when the question isn't directed at me i still end up going red on the face and sweating. A few days ago i was talking to my work colleague and he asked me if i had a girlfriend and i started going red on the face. I don't know why this happens. It gets frustrating that i can't even have conversation where i don't turn red on the face or without sweating. Anyone else have the same problem? Does anyone know how i can stop going red in the face?

I don't have that problem but did (and do still slightly) have some social anxiety and had quite severe agoraphobia for years. I had cbt and hypnotherapy which helped a lot. You're going red in the face because you are feeling anxiety over certain subjects. The way to stop going red in the face is to lower your anxiety over the topics which is easier said than done.

@miniam I didn't really answer myself. I made a suggestion based on my own experience but accepted that what I said is easy to say but harder to implement. Same as people said to me you need to deal with your anxiety...it was easy for them to say but quite hard for me to do but I did it. The basis of this persons problem is anxiety and it's easy for me to see that and point it out...for the person to solve the problem will be harder and cost some cash
