Social Anxiety Disorder Symptoms Affecting Your Social
Interactions With People In Public
By Janine Jensenoris
If you have a fear of social situations that makes
you feel sick, or give you other strong symptoms that
seem to go way beyond mere shyness in public, then the
chances are pretty likely that you’re experiencing social
anxiety disorder symptoms.
These tend to begin as cognitive, or psychological
symptoms, but they soon grow into physical symptoms
as well, which result in changes in behavior that are
themselves another category of symptoms of this
disorder.
The symptoms tend to manifest in similar ways whether
you’re dealing with specific phobias, such as severe
stage fright or a more generalized anxiety about any
public situation.
Afraid Of Social Situations
The starting place of the social anxiety disorder symptoms
is usually your thought patterns, the cognitive area,
where you perceive other people as being ready to make
negative judgments about you.
You are so self-conscious that you might make more
mistakes, reinforcing your feelings that you can’t do
anything right. Soon you may become afraid of being
in social situations of any type.
Feeling Foolish And Embarrassed
Your thoughts and perceptions then lead almost inevitably
to social anxieties that manifest in physical ways.
Indeed, these are often thought of as the main symptoms
of this type of disorder.
You might blush to an extreme, sweat a lot, or begin
to experience heart palpitations, nausea or trembling
in social situations. Because you manifest these visible
symptoms, they may make you feel even more foolish or
embarrassed, adding to your anxiety and producing further
symptoms such as an anxiety attack.
Avoiding Interactions With People In Public
The cognitive and physiological social anxiety disorder
symptoms usually lead to alterations in your behavior.
Your fear of social situations will likely prompt you
to review your options and start avoiding things that
could lead to your having to interact with other people
in public.
You may refrain from going to parties, not take jobs
where you might have to speak in public, or even avoid
school courses that require class presentations. To
keep these social fears from truncating your life completely,
the only real answer is a proper diagnosis of your condition,
and appropriate treatment.
