Not everyone is excited about the thought of an upcoming phone conversation.
If you're one of those people who literally panics when they see an incoming call on their mobile, remember: there is a way to make phone calls more bearable.
You should start by setting a calm melody as a call signal, which would gradually increase in volume - this way you will not jump every time from an unexpected call.
In addition, you can assign a unique ringtone to each category of contacts in your address book.
Even without looking at the phone screen, you will already know in advance who is calling you.
If you have to dial someone's number yourself, first calmly think over everything you want to say. If necessary, rehearse the planned conversation.
In a situation where you need to make a decision, don't be shy about saying that you'll think about it and call back later.
And stop feeling guilty when you turn off your phone. You can call back after you've finished important things and are in the mood for a conversation.
