Social Anxiety
Social
anxiety is a very common symptom and certainly one of the most
common problems we help clients to overcome at our Practices.
Those
suffering social anxiety often have great difficulty enjoying
social situations, being part of a group or may even feel awkward
in one to one relationships. |

Attending meetings, interviews
or any situation where people are put on the spot often creates
high levels of anxiety. Even everyday situations involving friends
or work colleagues can make the person feel uncomfortable and
on the spot, perhaps also creating concerns about how others
see them. Quite often they will avoid some or all of these situations
as a way of controlling the anxiety, but this often creates
an additional set of worries and tends to isolate the person
even further, preventing them from progressing in their career
or even enjoying personal relationships.
Some
of the symptoms associated with social anxiety are:
Lack
of confidence
Negative self esteem
Fear of being judged
Blushing
Sensitivity to criticism
Fear of rejection
Fear of crowded spaces
Shyness
