Trouble Making Phone Calls with ADHD

social anxiety!! that’s what it could be

Phone calls make me anxious because I generally have a hard time understanding what people are saying over the phone, auditory processing issues for the win haha

i also have trouble with phone calls, i get extremely nervous when making them so youre not alone with this, not sure if its an adhd thing though

When I was a teenager I had close to panic attacks when I had to call someone that was not my friend. I’ve mostly grown out of it, but there is definitely still a sense of nervousness. My voice goes super high pitched. I have ADHD and my anxiousness isn’t bad enough to be fully considered anxiety. I think it’s either the tendency for people with ADHD to also have anxiety, or it’s a normal fear that even people without ADHD go through.

it could also be social anxiety!
