Social anxiety is the tendency to be nervous in social situations because of concerns of being judged negatively, appearing to look foolish or doing something embarassing. It typically involves interactions with others where attention is focused on you or others may notice you in some manner. It involves anxiety provoking thoughts/beliefs that interfere with one’s ability to function in social situations and within important interpersonal relationships.
The prevalence rate is anywhere from 7-13%.
Having social anxiety can affect one’s relationships, career and education as well as daily activities.
