Question

Why do people fear rejection? write in 8 sentences

Answer 1

Answer:

A person with social anxiety feels uncontrollable fear that they'll be judged or rejected by other people. They'll often end up avoiding social situations altogether, when they can. However, in theory, anthropophobia could include symptoms unrelated to social interaction. Furthermore, Past experiences with rejection can play a role in this fear. People who experience greater levels of anxiety or who struggle with feelings of loneliness, depression, self-criticism, and poor self-esteem may also be more susceptible. Apart from this, additional causes of rejection fear may include a specific early traumatic experience of loss (such as the loss of a parent) or rejection, being abandoned when young, being repeatedly bullied or ridiculed, having a physical condition that either makes you different or you believe makes you unattractive to others. Besides these reasons, the consequences of the chronic experience of rejection can be low self esteem, depression, loneliness, aggression, a heightened sensitivity to future rejection, and a tendency to be self-critical and self-rejecting, and then critical and rejecting of others in turn.
