Without going into the essence of the matter at length, social anxiety can be described by several symptoms: fear of communicating with strangers and fear of making a mistake.
There are very few people with such symptoms, no more than 5% of the total number, it is very difficult to detect this disease in yourself, but it is worth trying.
Our expert of the portal "MOS SMI" on astrology, esotericism and psychology Elena Gutyro will tell you how to independently identify the symptoms of this disorder.
The origins of anxiety
In most cases, this psychological disorder has its roots in childhood. The person could have been constantly teased and morally abused.
Parents could be constantly dissatisfied with everything. Humiliate the child daily, accordingly, he grows up an absolute coward, afraid to express his own opinion.
Interestingly, anxiety can begin to develop even if a person simply witnesses other people being bullied.
How to understand that you are at risk
The most obvious sign that a person is prone to social anxiety is his attitude towards everyday human rituals:
- speaking in front of an audience
- lunch in a public canteen
- being in the spotlight
- parties and holidays.
If in all these cases a person loses his composure, loses his train of thought and falls into a stupor, then society frightens him and this is obvious.
How to act in such a situation
It is quite difficult to climb out of such a psychological hole on your own, although it is realistic. It is better to contact a specialist.
The origins of anxiety are always unique in nature and each case requires an individual approach; simple sedatives will not help in this case.
