Let's talk about
Social Anxiety
Social anxiety is an intense fear of social situations, leading to avoidance of interactions, self-consciousness, and distress. It can make everyday activities—such as meeting new people, speaking in public, or attending social gatherings—overwhelming. Social anxiety can interfere with relationships, work, and self-confidence, but support is available.
Key characteristics of social anxiety include:
Fear of being judged, embarrassed, or humiliated.
Avoiding social events or interactions.
Physical symptoms such as blushing, sweating, or trembling.
Overanalyzing conversations and fearing negative judgment.
With the right support, social anxiety therapy can help individuals manage fear and build confidence in social situations.
WHAT DOES SOCIAL ANXIETY FEEL LIKE?
Social anxiety can feel like a constant fear of being judged or saying the wrong thing. Many people describe overthinking conversations or avoiding social situations altogether due to intense nervousness.
The experience of social anxiety may include:
Racing thoughts or panic before social interactions.
Feeling physically tense, shaky, or short of breath in social settings.
Overanalyzing past conversations and worrying about mistakes.
Avoiding eye contact or social events due to fear of embarrassment.
Social anxiety can be overwhelming, but learning coping strategies can help individuals feel more comfortable in social environments.
