Fast Track SOS Tapping for Social Anxiety

This is an SOS tapping script that you can use immediately after you have had a brush with someone or been in a social setting that made you feel nervous or inferior. On such occasions it happens that we keep feeling bad about ourselves even as we are talking to the person. This is an extreme tapping script and uses somewhat strong wording to bring out all the anger and frustration to clear out it eventually.

I have found this tapping to be very effective if used in the heat of the moment, like when you’ve just returned home from being in a setting where you felt inferior and weren’t able to show your best side. It is at such times that you beating yourself up for being nervous or not good enough. You also run conversations in your mind over and over. This tapping clears out all of that and calms you down so that from then onwards you are more relaxed when placed in a similar setting. That reflects in your behaviour and others can sense it too. You can use this script on a need basis till you start to feel completely relaxed and confident.

(There is no set up tapping for this fast track script. We jump right into the tapping here.)

Collar bone    I could have said it so much better.

Under the arm    I could have carried myself so much better.

EFT tapping round 2

Eyebrow    I felt like I was being judged for every part of me.

Side of the eye    And now this debacle will keep haunting me.

Under the eye    The words I said, the words they said,

Under the nose    what they must have thought of me,

Chin    the whole scene frame by frame.

Collar bone    I’m not even like that normally.

Under the arm    Just being around such people kills my confidence.

Top of the head    I felt so nervous secretly, or maybe it was obvious.

EFT tapping round 3

Eyebrow    It must have been, because I was grinning like a fool.

Side of the eye    They must have thought I am an idiot, good for nothing.

Under the eye    Exactly the opposite of what I want them to think of me.

Under the nose    I felt so inferior, so inadequate in front of them!

Chin    My mind and body failed me. I had no control.

Collar bone    It was like I was just watching me making a fool of myself.

Under the arm    I’m so angry with myself. I should be.

Top of the head    If I am not what they expect me to be,

EFT tapping round 4

Eyebrow    I will miss out on their good favour and opportunities.

Side of the eye    I will never be given priority in their decisions.

Under the eye    I will never be considered an insider, a person they can count on.

Under the nose    I will always feel like an outsider.

Chin    No matter what I do, I just can’t be that confident,

Collar bone    self-assured person they will admire and envy.

Under the arm    They will always look down upon me.

Top of the head    Wait, if there are people who will always look down upon me,

EFT tapping round 5

Eyebrow    or who can’t look past my minor imperfections,

Side of the eye    should I really be caring about what they think of me?

Under the eye    Isn’t that going to be an endless battle trying to win them over?

Under the nose    Who knows, maybe they are very good at hiding their own insecurities.

Chin    Hard  to believe, but at this point, I’ll take it.

Collar bone    What if maybe, just maybe, they’ll be okay knowing the real me?

Under the arm    What if whether or not they become bosom pals with me,

Top of the head    I will still find all the acceptance and opportunities I deserve anyway?

EFT tapping round 6

Eyebrow    And what if it is okay to be nervous or shy?

Side of the eye    In some cultures, it might even be considered cute.

Under the eye    I can live with that.

Under the nose    So now every time I feel the pressure to be perfect,

Chin    to be a smooth talker who has all the answers,

Collar bone    I’m going to pinch myself out of that trap.

Under the arm    And remember that I am striving for progress not perfection.

Top of the head    I choose to feel calm and confident being me.
