It’s difficult to talk about social anxiety. It presents in so many different ways, and it can manifest itself at almost any stage of life. For some people, social anxiety causes them to avoid social situations and become very introverted. For others, it wreaks havoc on their personal relationships and forces them to live a life in solitude — all the while feeling as if they are missing out on the one thing that could truly make them happy.

I had to find the root cause of social anxiety before I was able to heal from this debilitating condition that altered my life for so long. I’ve never been good at talking about myself or sharing my story, but that has changed. Since I learned more about social anxiety and how mental disorders work, I’ve come to realize that the root cause of all social anxiety is fear.

Do You Know The Root Cause Of Social Anxiety?

The root cause of all social anxiety attacks is fear. When we fear being judged by others, when we fear judgment for ourselves, when we don’t fit into societal norms, or when we believe that it will be worse if we are judged — these are all triggers for our fears of embarrassment.
