Social anxiety disorder, sometimes referred to as social phobia, isn\u2019t just feeling shy to speak to a stranger.<\/p>\n<p>Having social anxiety disorder makes you extremely anxious about other people\u2019s opinions about yourself, how they may judge you and as a result, social interactions with other human beings become an absolute nightmare.<\/p>\n<p>Some symptoms of social anxiety disorder can include a marked fear or dread of situations where you\u2019d be forced to strike up a conversation with a stranger. There is an irrational fear that you might embarrass or humiliate yourself to an extent that other people will think you\u2019re weird.<\/p>\n<p>In certain cases, this fear exists in situations where you\u2019ll be placed in the spotlight, like giving talks, presentations or leading a roundtable discussion at work or school. Placed in a situation like that, people who suffer from social anxiety disorder develop physical symptoms of anxiety like faster heart rates, palpitations, shaking, sweating, nausea, and in severe situations, a panic attack.<\/p>\n<p>It might be difficult to distinguish being socially awkward and having actual social anxiety disorder and as such, here are three features that tend to be diagnosed with the latter: symptoms you possess cannot be a result of another mental health condition, your anxiety is mostly born out of social situations, and that your main symptom is the extreme avoidance of social situations.<\/p>\n<p>If you feel like you suffer from these symptoms, it\u2019s best to approach a psychiatrist as soon as possible in order to avoid complicated problems in both your personal and professional life.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While it\u2019s generally common to sometimes feel out of place at a social event you got dragged to by a friend, are you aware that there exists a serious disorder related to that feeling?
