Can Being Tall Cause Social Anxiety? | How To Navigate Social Situations As A Tall Person

Question of the Day:

Can being tall cause social anxiety?

Because think about it, we stick out like a sore thumb, sometimes get negative attention, have difficulty existing in physical spaces; surely height can be a contributing factor to social anxiety, right?

So that we’re on the same page, let’s define social anxiety. Social anxiety is a disorder where everyday interactions cause irrational anxiety, fear, self-consciousness, and embarrassment. Don’t come for me okay lol; this is essentially the summary of definitions I found on Google.

And this can happen in different settings like a bar or a school club meeting or even just hanging out with friends, especially when around new or a lot of people. There’s this fear of judgment and humiliation and even worry of embarrassment.

So what does social anxiety look like in tall people? And how can you navigate social situations as a tall person? Tune in to my full episode for more info!
