Social Anxiety Symptoms

The symptoms associated with social anxiety can vary greatly from person to person. Because they can so easily be mistaken for a generally shy or introverted personality type, it's important to distinguish what makes up actual social anxiety and the symptoms that are characteristic of it. There are two important aspects of the condition that sets it apart from shyness. The first is that you choose not to do something simply because of the fear that someone will judge you based on how you do it or how well you do it. The second is that you are constantly afraid of doing something wrong and looking bad in front of others.

The symptoms of the disorder can truly limit your everyday life in significant and even crippling ways. There are both physical and psychological symptoms but it is typically the physical symptoms that worries sufferers the most because they are visible by others in public and that alone can compound the anxiety and make the situation worse. The following are the most common psychological symptoms of social anxiety:

·      Fear of being judged or criticized by others

·      Avoidance of social settings and situations

·      Urge to leave social situations

·      Fear of humiliating or making a fool of yourself

·      Fear that others will notice your symptoms or condition

Some common physical symptoms of social anxiety include:

·      Rapid heart rate

·      Shaky voice

·      Difficulty finishing a sentence without taking a breath

·      Blushing

·      Shaking

Thankfully, all types of anxiety can be cured in the same way panic attacks are treated and if you feel you suffer from it, you should take action as soon as possible to prevent it from getting worse or developing into other disorders.
