>stop anticipating the recoil
Ok but how? Trying not to anticipate it just makes me anticipate it more

I would try and be helpful but the best OP image you can come up with is a frog, so go fuck yourself instead.

The critical first step to this and shooting good in general is not blinking. Consciously force your eyes to stay open from the time you begin pulling the trigger until after the recoil settles. Without doing that you will keep flinching/pulling shots. With doing this you will be able to begin working on relaxing enough not to tense up in over anticipation. Don't even worry about recoil control, just a firm handshake grip, good press, and good follow through.

Just shoot a lot until you're comfortable with it and it feels normal. I didn't need any gay advice, literally just get used to it.

Blindfold yourself, aim your gun, and have a friend pull the trigger for you with a short stick. The stick should be on the trigger constantly so you can't tell when they are going to pull the trigger by filling them putting the stick in the trigger guard.

Visualize the path of the bullet instead of the target or something

Think about raping the target, or how much that son of a bitch deserves it after sceenpeeking in COD splitcreen. Basically just ignore the gun in your hand and focus on how much hatred and/or lust you have for your target

First step is to understand in your head that there's zero reason to flinch. Yeah, the gun is going to recoil. So what? Let it recoil. It's not going to harm anything.

Don't try to hold the gun rock solid like it's in a vise. Even if you're the hulk shooting a .22 the gun WILL move. That's totally okay, let it. Keep a firm hold but don't go crazy trying to death grip the gun. Let the recoil happen, get back on target.

What caliber are you shooting? Shooting a lot of rimfire or even pellet guns is a good way to condition yourself to not flinch and let the break come as a surprise. Personally I don't like letting the break surprise me, but I still don't want to flinch as no one should. White noise ear buds + 22lr off a monopod helped condition me to loosen up and not flinch. Basically ingrain in your head that gunfire and recoil are soft, then when you go back to center-fire you don't have such a strong subconscious reflex. It can feel a bit wimpy and dorky but it helped me a lot and it's cheap

Also get in your stance and before you shoot pay attention to any tension especially your back and shoulders. If you find any, relax, loosen up and nearly let yourself rag doll, let your jaw slack and so on. Pre shot rituals even like you see with baseball players. Shake your wrists out, roll your shoulders crack your neck whatever. Take your position and pay attention to natural point of aim. If you're stretching too much or feel pain or a pinch to maintain the position it's no good. Too much exertion leads to more flinching. Reposition yourself exhale and let it go. Don't try to time the sight picture. If your position is comfortable your first sight picture is the best you're gonna get. The more you try to time it fight it or anticipate the worse you're gonna twitch at the recoil

1) Most flinching is caused by the abrupt loud noise not the recoil itself. Wear earplugs and earmuffs at all times. Also avoid indoor ranges, they tend to amplify the noise considerably.
2) It is also sufficient to condition yourself to not give a fuck about the recoil and noise, at which point you will gradually cease anticipating it, because it's just not important enough to think about.

Relax and hold the firearm in a firm handshake grip.

Use dry fire to practice pulling the trigger smoothly, without jerking or twitching. Have a spent casing sitting on top of the gun, or a laser mounted or something, so you can clearly see any twitches. Practice until you can do it steady. Do this between all your live fire sessions, every day.
When live firing, pull the trigger real slow and smooth. Much slower than you think it needs to be pulled. Watch carefully for any jittering. If you twitch, back off a bit and pull again even slower. If your hand tires, set the gun down and rest and then try again. Try not to be aware of how close you are to the wall, etc., just focus on pulling smoothly.
You should be able to cut down on it a ton that way. If you're still struggling, buy some snap caps and randomly shuffle them in when you're loading a magazine, or have a buddy do it for you, so you have no idea whether the gun will actually go bang or not and can tell yourself it won't go off and to just focus on the smooth pull like during dry fire practice.
Then just practice more, slowly increasing how fast you pull as you manage to 10/10 not twitch at any given speed.
This works with much fewer rounds spent than just banging away hoping to get used to it through numbers. There's schools that claim they can train it out completely in less than a box of ammo this way.

OP dry fire a lot. Use a target about 1/4". 25 times a day.
