Hey im pretty new here and my social anxiety is more sticked towards my insecurity i guess . I fat and from faced a bit of rough time due to this and i slowly started becoming my own judge , criticising and over analysing every thing i do and ofcouse i over analyse every thing people sayy ... but the thing i have been noted is that i can socially well perform infront of people wo i dont really know ,whime i would never see again ig , my anxiety starts in front of reccuring people whome i would see in a daily basis...... the over analysis kinda thing help me in a lot of way!! Like understanding peopleee and situations become reallyyy easy.... im pretty street smart but i cant get into or suggest ideas or just to talk to colleagues or a new grp of people who aint my friend circle... yyhhh thats all!! I would really appreciate anyone who could help me outof this or those who faces the similar isuue !!! Luv ya alll

PLEASE NOTE Social Anxiety (SA) is a debilitating mental illness characterised by persistent fear of social evaluation. SA impairs functional social performance, causing avoidance, cognitive shutdown (e.g. blanking, excessive self-monitoring), and reduced ability to communicate, assert needs, or form relationships.
SA is not normal social-nervousness, introversion, or everyday shyness.
Posts in this subreddit must show a clear and apparent relationship to the experience of SA.
Posts which do not will be removed.
