Scarlet Red

   Back in middle school, I used to be extremely self-conscious, and insecure.  I still feel those ways but not to the extent as I used to.  My biggest problem throughout middle school was when my face would turn bright red.  It could have happened when I was embarrassed, or sometimes it just happened randomly.  It was very noticeable and I think the worst part about it was that I felt my face become hotter, and hotter.  
   If anyone is experiencing the scarlet red face, don't be alarmed.  I believe overtime, you can cure it.  By the way, the key word in that last sentence was YOU.  Yes, you can cure the scarlet red face.  My face doesn't seem to become as red when I speak in class or when I am around suppose adults.  I believe that faces become scarlet red when someone becomes very nervous and not so much embarrassed.  If you are constantly thinking about being nervous, your face will just turn red.    Overtime, I taught myself to feel comfortable around adults, and to just relax.  
   I think that you can control your face from becoming bright red.  As you are speaking in front of class, focus on your breathing and not the fact that many of your peers are starring at you.  Also, while delivering a speech, don't look at anyone.  Just look straight ahead.  Therefore, you can forget that you are speaking in front of people basically because you won't even see them.  Also think about this for a minute, when one of you peers is delivering a speech, how much on a scale of 1-10 do you really care? My guess would be maybe a 2 or 3.  People don't care and probably aren't listening to what you are saying so remember nobody is even listening.  

Anyways, I hoped I helped you if you have this problem!
