What is social anxiety?

Social anxiety is a mental health condition that causes intense fear and anxiety in social situations. People with social anxiety may feel self-conscious, embarrassed, and judged by others. They may avoid social situations altogether, or they may experience intense anxiety when they are in social situations.

Social anxiety can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, personality traits, and life experiences. It is often comorbid with other mental health conditions, such as depression and generalized anxiety disorder.

There are a number of effective treatments for social anxiety. Some of the most common treatments include:

* Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT is a type of therapy that helps people to identify and change the negative thoughts and behaviors that contribute to their social anxiety. * Exposure therapy: Exposure therapy involves gradually exposing people to the social situations that they fear. This helps them to learn that their fears are not as bad as they think and that they can cope with social situations. * Medication: Medication can be helpful in reducing the symptoms of social anxiety.
