I have a lot of anxiety about talking on the phone. I am also anxious to speak to my father as he can be very nagging and causes me a lot of stress. He wants to check in on me frequently as I live out of state. I have explained to him before that speaking on the phone makes me very anxious, but if I don’t answer a few times he panics and starts having other family members try to contact me, which is more stressful. He is a bit older and can text but not very proficiently. What can I suggest so that he feels that I’m okay but I can avoid these phone conversations?
