I am very shy in public. What can I do?
Anxiety in social situations is almost universal. In some cases, however, social anxiety is more extreme, causing problems with relationships, employment, and education. One such cause for this is called social anxiety disorder. It is a very common mental health issue (5%-12% prevalence in the U.S.). Fortunately, there are effective treatments including therapy and sometimes medications. If you think this may be a problem for you, I would recommend being evaluated by a psychiatrist who is trained to diagnose and treat this and other related mental health issues. READ MORE
