TikTok LIVE Anxiety/Fear - Why Are So Many Creators Afraid To Go Live?

  • So many of us have a fear of going live on TikTok and I was curious what makes you fear it if you do. For me personally it has always been people leaving nasty comments in the stream, haters and worrying over my response to them and how they will SEE their comments bothering me. I really dont like the thought of that. I havent gone live in over a year on any channel. I dont feel its always needed to grow but certainly helps these days.

    What stops you going live? It seems we all want growth but theres always something holding us back even when we are massively capable.

  • I don't trust myself. Even when I have the ability to think about what I'm gonna type I still say impulsive shit I regret. There's a culture war going on, all it takes is one stupid comment and I could want to go back to my hidey hole. Yes I am aware this is cowardly, but like I said, in our pm's, I'm always a little nauseus so I don't feel like I can ever just focus on what's going on. I just know I'll say something that people will clip and take out of context etc, and if it brings attention to me, positive OR negative, I don't feel equipped to deal with it. YET. But like I also said, I am healing myself more every day and these fears will disappear soon enough.
