Understanding Social Anxiety Disorder

understanding-social-anxiety-disorder

Shyness around new people is normal. For instance, when we are new to a club, we might feel shy about showing our skills and interacting with the other members. But because of the familiarity brought by time passed, this shyness usually goes away. We become more comfortable with new friends and even become excited about meeting them. But with people with social anxiety disorder, this does not happen naturally. As a provider of behavioral health services in Katy, Texas, we want to help these people become at ease and comfortable in social settings.

Social anxiety disorder is a common type of anxiety disorder. It is often manifested by a constant fear of social interactions. People who have this disorder feel panicky or worried days or even weeks before a social event they have to attend. They also feel this way about meeting new people and even about people they already know. Our counseling aims to ease these extreme feelings.

People who feel that they might have this disorder can visit our outpatient psychiatric clinic. Our professional psychiatrist can provide a proper diagnosis and treatment plan to help people with social anxiety disorder overcome their fears and anxiety that disrupts their daily lives.
