I'm not sure if there is a thread for this or not.. I presume not because for some reason I get no results when searching (apologies if there is a thread for this already).
As some people may be aware of (mGG channel especially), I go on Starcraft 2 quite often, but most times I do nothing but stay in chat..
I did play a bit often until Uni started to kick me into the papers and now I'm trying to play regularly again I'm having a problem with my state of mind.
In short, I have developed a bad sense of ladder anxiety. I can play team games more comfortably but even so I'd really prefer to play on my own.
I get worked up to try and play a game, but I always give up in the end. I have tried to join in on tournaments but cos of the anxiety I get when I'm wanting to do a 1v1 my confidence drops and this hampers my thinking and decision making, which therefore has a huge negative impact on how I play. This anxiety I get also impacts me on team games and whenever I play in a team I fall behind so often due to the lack of confidence I develop.
I play for fun really, just casual gamer but would be great to get better at this game. Is there any advice that anyone can give me to overcome this issue? As much input as possible would be highly appreciated!
Thanks everyone in advance, and hopefully in the future this thread can help others who experience this as well!
