Kind of specific, but I want a book to help me view the world in a different way. I’ve been very closed minded for many years in many ways. I’ve been doing some introspection and realized that me being judgmental, harsh, and quiet are all coping mechanisms to not have to deal with my social anxiety. When I do talk I feel like I’m reading off of a script in my mind. I want to view the world in a more natural way that doesn’t inhibit connecting to other people. After trying for some time, I’m still not making as much progress as I’d like. Are there any book recommendations for this kind of thing? A book about being more open to the world and viewing things in a more empathetic way?
