Next Social Phobia: The Largest Anxiety Disorder Social Phobia (social anxiety disorder) is defined as the fear (anxiety) of being judged, criticized, and evaluated by other people. This fear is recognized as irrational by the individual; nevertheless, the fear of judgment in social situations persists. People who have social phobia usually find it difficult to be introduced to other people ("I wonder what they're thinking about me; I'll bet they don't like me"), attracting attention to the self or being the center of attention, being watched while doing something ("They don't like what I'm doing; I must be making a fool of myself"), and feeling insecure and self-conscious in most public settings. Life is difficult for the person with social phobia because they feel they do not fit in with every one else. Something is wrong with them.

Side Effects Social Anxiety Disorder and Social Phobia Social Anxiety Disorder, also called social phobia, is characterized by overwhelming anxiety and excessive self-consciousness in everyday social situations. People that have social anxiety have a persistent, intense, and chronic fear of being watched and judged by others and of being embarrassed or humiliated by their own actions. Their fear may be so severe that it interferes with work or school - and other ordinary activities. While many people with social anxiety disorder recognize that their fear of being around people may be excessive or unreasonable, they are unable to overcome it. They often worry for days or weeks in advance of a dreaded situation. Social phobia can be limited to only one type of situation - such as a fear of speaking in formal or informal situations, or eating or drinking in front of others - or, in its most severe form, social anxiety disorder may be so broad that a person experiences symptoms almost anytime they are around other people. Social anxiety can be very debilitating - it may even keep people from going to work or school on some days. Many people with social anxiety disorder have a hard time making and keeping friends.

65. Social Anxiety Group In Maryland Free group for overcoming social anxiety disorders. http://www.geocities.com/social_anxiety_md/index.htm

Social Anxiety Group We meet on Saturdays from 1pm to 4pm in Havre de Grace , Maryland. This is exit #85 off interstate 95. Meetings are held in my home in a relaxed comfortable setting. Our meetings begin with listening to a CBT audio tape from Dr Richards Overcoming SAD series. This lasts between 45 minutes and 1 hour. Often times either I or past members will teach this material rather than listen to the tape. We then discuss the cognitive material for this session and how it might relate to our own life and behaviors. This is followed by a short break. What follows are behavioral group and individual exercises. These, like the tapes, are progressive and build up and become more challenging as participants feel ready to move up on their individual anxiety behavioral hierarchy. There are a minimal number of behavioral exercises in the first few sessions but group members invariably begin to look forward to this part of our meeting as the most fun and rewarding. As we progress in the 20 tape series the behavioral exercises are slowly expanded. Participation in the activities is completely voluntary. No one is coerced into participation; however, they are encouraged to "stretch" themselves just a little each week.

Home Anxiety Disorders Causes Symptoms ... Prevention Main Menu Free Newsletter Bookstore Anxiety Disorders Articles ... Research Anxiety Disorders Social Anxiety (Phobia) Social Anxiety is the experience of fear and/or anxiety in social situations in which people think they may embarrass themselves or make a fool of themselves in some way. There can be varying degrees of social anxiety. Many people can experience some form of anxiety when in a social situation. We all know the nervous anticipation we feel when we have to stand up in front of a group to speak, or give a presentation, or when walking into a social gathering where we don't know many people. A diagnosis of social anxiety is made if the fear and anxiety is effecting people to a degree that it is debilitating and restricting their life. For instance, if we feel fear and anxiety/panic only when we have to give a presentation in front of a group, (and we are not required to give presentations on a regular basis), then we may have a specific phobia of public speaking. If we fear we will embarrass ourselves or make a fool of ourselves, in some or all areas of our life, to the point where we experience intense anxiety and/or panic then a diagnosis of Social Anxiety could be given. Common experiences and fears relating to Social Anxiety are Fear of embarrassing ourselves in some way Fear that we may make a fool of ourselves in some way Fear of doing, saying, acting the wrong way

67. Highly Sensitive People Books about highly sensitive people and the spiritual roots of social anxiety. http://www.iconoclastpress.com/HighlySensitivePeople.html

Highly Sensitive People and Ultra Sensitive People: the spiritual cause behind the 'problem' of being a highly sensitive person. A highly sensitive person is simply more 'open' to the psychic and spiritual chaos of life than is the average person who has thicker walls around them. This is not a 'problem', but a gift. However, it must be recognized, accepted, and then assimilated into one's life, in order for such sensitivity to be a benefit rather than a burder. The following excerpt from ROOTS AND WINGS: adventures of a spirit on earth , by Jack Haas , provides a personal account of his own awakening to such openness, and what that really meant. For more insight into other projects Jack Haas is involved with, including photography and artwork, go to: www.spiritandflesh.net "The problem for me is that I have always been far too open, so much so that I suffered from terrible allergies, and neverending sickliness during periods of my childhood, which, I was to find out in later years, are sure signs that you are absorbing other people’s negative energy, and becoming like the liver of the spirit, wherein all toxins are sent to be processed. I was always too unhealthily open. As a child, at my grandmother’s cottage, I often suffered horrendous allergy attacks, sore throats, or plugged nasal cavities, which could last for weeks, or even the whole summer. Many decades later I read in a metaphysical book that children who are very open often suffer the consequences- in the form of mental or physical suffering- from the pathos or corruptions of another in their midst. And there was one elderly person, living in my presence, who was as corrupt as they come; outwardly giving but inwardly taking, outwardly full of pleasantries but inwardly a murderer, outwardly caring but inwardly conniving and oppressing, and I suffered in the atmosphere of that person’s psychic chaos without a clue that it was not simply a bad case of hay fever, or a cold that would not go away. Later in life, as a young man, I had a certain type of pain occur on one side of my neck a number of times, which came on all of the sudden, would stay for a few agonizing days, and then slowly fade away. I assumed it was the remnant of an old football injury, returning now and then whenever I slept improperly. This, however, was not the truth, for I did not know at the time that we call someone a “pain in the neck” for very accurate, spiritual reasons, though in modern days we do not recall the lucid understandings which this now colloquial phrase once held in years gone by when the dark arts were more prevalently understood. ... On one occasion I was in a heated quarrel with a person close to my heart, but who was not exactly inwardly honest about their feelings, and though they were claiming to care deeply for me, at one point they walked behind me and I felt a shooting pain go through my back, as if I had just been stabbed, which I had, psychically. And so I also then understood the term ‘back stabber’ in a way I never had before. To see more about

How much do you rely on other people for daily activities and money. If not too private, could you also say your age. 1 Comment Comment on this Monday, August 29th, 2005 10:54 am cosmicchic I am experimenting with Cammomile tea. I have an organic garden and the most productive and beautiful cammomile plant has come up this year. i must have thrown some seeds sometime. I have been infusing about 6 fresh flower heads and drinking it before bed. I get so tired I can't hold my eyes open in front of the tv and this is not usual for me. I have started drinking the tea before getting ready for bed then drink it and wait until my eyelids say bedtime. Today I am going to drink about 5 cups throughout the day to see how it effects my overall anxiety. Have been terribly emotional and depressed lately. Seriously depressed. Another entry. So will let you know how Cammomile (fresh, organic) tea goes.

Canadian Psychological Association Did you know that... Psychology works for Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia) PDF Version Back to Psychology works What is Social Anxiety Disorder? Social anxiety disorder or social phobia (SD) is fear of social situations. Typically people are afraid they will be embarrassed or humiliated by showing signs of anxiety, saying or doing something which other people will react negatively to, or not knowing what to say or do. Common signs of anxiety are blushing, trembling or shaking, or losing track of conversation (feeling that your mind goes blank). People with social anxiety disorder often worry about social interactions and may go to considerable trouble to avoid them. Situations which are commonly feared include talking in a group, speaking in front of a large or small group, having a conversation (especially with someone who is not well known to them), meeting someone new, speaking to a person in authority, and dating situations. Some people experience difficulty using the telephone, eating or drinking when other people are watching, or participating in activities where there may be an audience such as sports, music, or acting. A person has social anxiety disorder when it interferes with the person's schooling, work, family functioning, or social life or if it causes significant distress. Some people may be described as very shy while others appear to be comfortable in social situations even though they feel very anxious.

80. The Organisation For People Who Suffer From Panic Attacks, Agoraphobia, Social P A selfhelp organization for those suffering from social anxiety, agoraphobia, panic attacks, and other anxiety-related disorders. http://www.panicattacks.co.uk

PAX In 1990 The Royal College of Psychiatrists reported that more than nine million Britons will suffer from abnormal anxiety and fears at some time in their lives. No Fear The latest book by Alice Neville Available now Pax is the Latin word for peace. Peace of mind is what we all hope for. In 1966 I founded what was probably the first phobia organisation in the world. The Open Door . Later this became PAX and included panic attacks and other anxiety disorders. From childhood until my mid-twenties I suffered from agoraphobia; not a fear of open spaces as it was generally to be but much nearer to the original definition of the Greek term 'fear of the market place' or place of assembly. In fact it is really a fear of the feeling of fear which manifests itself in a variety of situations. Open spaces, confined spaces, crowds, church, shops, school - anywhere inside or outside where feelings of anxiety arise and there is an overpowering need to escape immediately. We now know that thousands of people experience acute feelings of anxiety escalating to almost unbearable proportions. If these anxiety, or 'panic' attacks keep recurring the sufferer is said to have 'panic disorder' and because they have become a habit of occurring in the same situations this becomes 'classic' agoraphobia. BOOKS I have written books about these problems, the first
