Jennifer Lau From Oxford University an experimental psychologist says  if you wave someone standing on other side of the road and don’t get any response than you may think either they may have not recognized you are they are snubbing you. Those people having anxiety mostly think the latter interpretation.

Lau said that these negative thoughts in people drive and maintain the felling of low mood and anxiety in them, reports the journal Child Psychiatry and Human Development. Lau said according to an Oxford statement if people are able to change their negative way of thinking it would be beneficial for them to change their anxious mood.
