SOCIAL ANXIETY DISORDER (SAD)

 

Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) transforms life into a state of exaggerated worry and fear whenever sufferers must come into significant contact with others they don’t know very well. Sufferers are consumed with anxiety and dread when around people in very ordinary situations.

 

Other Symptoms Include:

 

• Being nervous or frightened during situations in which you may be the focus of attention
• Dreading such activities as speaking in public, performing, using public restrooms, eating in public or writing in the presence of others
• Fear of trembling in the presence of others, being embarrassed or humiliated

 

These symptoms can negatively affect relationships with family and friends and they commonly have a large impact on job performance, especially for people whose jobs involve sales.  Scientists have learned that Social Anxiety Disorder can be caused from an underlying brain biochemical imbalance which is often treatable with medications.
