Social Anxiety Symtoms: What are the Social Anxiety Symtoms
Everybody has experienced anxiety to some extent. The first thing to note is that you are not alone.
It is when that sense of anxiety becomes extreme in response to normal social events or where it starts to limit our ability to live a normal life that it may be diagnosed as social phobia.
Social anxiety symtoms and and in more extreme cases panik attacks are associated with a condition known as social phobia. Anxiety is the feeling of nag, apprehension, fear and / or panic in response to situations which may seem overwhelming or threatening.
Len. Anxiety may display itself as a sense of concern before an exam, butterfly’s in your stomach before a presentation or a heightened sense of alertness whether you are in danger or are under threat. So what are the social anxiety symtoms?
- a fear of saying or doing something to embarress oneself in front of others
- worrying in advance (days or weeks) of meeting public or attending social events
- sweating, blushing, trembling when in the company of other people
- avoiding situations where one may be called up on to contribute to group conversations and speeches or similar
- use alcohol or similar to overcome the fear
If you, a loved one or friend experience any of these symtoms you may be suffering from social phobia.
Social phobia is a real illness that can have a detrimental impact on a persons life. Please note, I am not a medical practitioner but an ex sufferer of that condition.
