How do you find the blushing now? I rarely blush. I remember getting cans of drink from the vending machine at school and rolling them over my cheeks before anything sociable!

I can relate to the heat, and even though I could never see the blushing myself it must have been noticeable for other kids to use it as a weakness and make every day a living hell. I actually think the blushing was the start of everything, then came panic attacks, anxiety and depression.
I can't remember the last time I blushed so I guess I rarely do now like yourself.
