I suffer from Social Anxiety Disorder for long,long time,at the begining I thought it was just Extreme Shyness:
You suffer from Social Anxiety Disorder if!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

Generally, people with social anxiety disorder fear and avoid social situations that fall into two broad categories, performance situations (e!.g!., situations that involve performing in front of others or being observed by other people) and social interaction situations (e!.g!., situations that involve engaging or interacting with one or more people)!. Most people with social anxiety disorder fear situations from both of these categories!.

Examples of Feared Performance Situations in Social Anxiety Disorder:
? Public speaking
? Talking in meetings or classes
? Participating in sports or working out in front of others
? Performing music or acting on stage
? Writing in front of others
? Eating or drinking in front of others
? Using public restrooms when other people are nearby
? Making mistakes in front of others
? Being in public areas such as a shopping mall or a bus

Examples of Feared Social Interaction Situations in Social Anxiety Disorder:
? Going to a party
? Initiating or maintaining conversation
? Talking to strangers
? Inviting friends over for dinner
? Talking on the phone
? Expressing personal opinions
? Being assertive (e!.g!., refusing to give in to unreasonable requests, asking others to change their behavior)
? Being in intimate situations
? Talking to people in authority (e!.g!., employer, professor, doctor)
? Returning items to a store or sending food back in a restaurant

You suffer from Extreme Shyness: if!.!.!.!.!.!.!.
Some people however, are afflicted with a degree of shyness so severe that it is almost disabling!. This type of acute shyness is not only very painful to experience, but it can have devastating effects on a person
