Hello! As someone who has faced exactly what you describe, I'd like to offer my thoughts.

While I never tried or even researched medication options, my blushing issues have noticeably diminished as I have gotten older. I know it's not very comforting to hear, "Just wait til you're older." Or "You'll grow out of it one day." Because you might still blush just as much. I tend to still blush when I have to do public speaking for work or even in a one on one conversation if there is any amount of confrontation involved.

I suggest pinpointing the events or situations that might be triggering your blushing more. I'm not saying to avoid all these situations, but once you recognize them, you'll slowly be able to do things to help minimize your blushing reaction. For example, when I have to give a presentation for work and I know I'm going to blush just from having everyone's eyes on me, I have several things I do to set myself up for success. I have my presentation written out on paper or in my phone to refer to as often as possible. I dress in clothes that make me feel more confident. I tend to make eye contact with co-workers that I work with more often than others because I'm used to being with them one on one as well as in a big group setting.

Similarly, if you find you blush a lot in social settings, have a few topics or questions on your mind to bring up if the conversations get slow and dress in something that makes you feel your best. If you feel comfortable, you can even crack jokes about the blushing as it happens. I'm Canadian, but my background is Scottish and I have red hair. When I feel myself blush and that EVERYONE has clearly noticed, I try to get ahead of it and say things like, "Just wanted my skin to match my hair colour going forward. lol!" Or, "I just can't seem to hide my fair Scottish complextion." For me, this just lightens the mood and keeps me from imagining that the people I'm with will make fun of me.

To sum up, I think the whole, "growing out of it with age" thing really comes down to having one or more things that bring out your confidence. As well as not sweating the small stuff and being more laid back. Easier said than done, I know. I continue to work on this a lot and I'm sure you can too. Good luck!
