Whats the difference? I myself am quiet until I get to know you. I hate social situation I feel uncomfortable, surly that doesn't mean I have social anxiety? I just don't like social situations, being brought up an only child I am more used to my own company and find it more comfortable, Its the same with Generalised Anxiety Disorder, am I avoiding a situation because I feel anxious or do I just not want to go, Where do you draw the line?
They say if you have to drink alcohol in social situations to feel comfortable you may have social anxiety, I mean everyone I know drinks in social situation to feel comfortable.
I'm confussed, define what social anxiety is and what Shyness is? My Psychologist put this into my head today, I am attending her for Generalised Anxiety Disorder.
