I am 13 years old and i blush really bad. Someone only has to say something to me and im the colour of beetroot. Even talking on the phone to family and friends set me off. I am also really shy but i dont think i would be as shy if i didnt go red. I dont go red because im nervous or really embarrassed, its in my genes as my mum also goes red too, but its not as bad as me. I cant even put my hand up in class to answer a question because i got beetroot red. My dream is to stop going red, can anyone give me any tips? I heard about this site in a magazine, the website was www.shakeyourshyness.com and there was a link to this site.

In response to blushing posted by cheekymonkey13:

I remembers me of when I was a teenager. I felt exactly the same. I stopped me from doing my best in school. The most horrifying was to stand in front of class and read or talk. I still got the creeps just by thinking about it. Sometimes I turned red even before I had started.I'm not sure what methods is the best. Surgery seems to dangerous. But I heard about some guy in Finland that does reversible EST operations. But I can't find his home page.I also found a site that sells an manual with different cure methods. www.facialblush.com Cheers all other blushers out there.

Really headache...I also suffer of blushing,i hate it.I have this problem for many years and realized,that no ways to overcome it.But not so long ago,I saw the website,where I read about EST operations.I had no way out and decided to make an EST.In my case,the operation was not successful...My blushing back.Now I am serching all information about this desease.But,unfortunately,this problem is not so simple..
to EVERYBODY:THINK PROPERLY BEFORE TAKING DESISION OF OPERATION!try all methods!operation rate is 85%,but it's less in real...and think about all the side effects!!!!!!!!!

Blushing can be a difficult thing to deal with if you become obsessed with it and see it as a major problem.However, it is a natural occurence and there is not really a lot one can.I think the best thing to do is just accept it and get on with life, if you don't see it as an issue then no one else will either. You go red , you go red.Don't start panicing.That is who you are,no one is perfect.Everyone has their own insecurities afterall.I'm not sure about the surgery.Although you can wear more makeup and try perhaps hypnosis to reduce the anxiety also.
