Fear is an emotion which is mostly triggered by the release of hormones or neurotransmitters like adrenaline and noradrenaline.
The reason fear exists is mainly evolutionary for self-preservation. Feeling scared in dangerous situations keeps you alive.
Social anxiety is a commonly occuring phenomenon in our
postmodern society. The pathological shyness discourages many people from showing their whole potential in front of other people in school, at work or in general social situations.
It does not provide you any help to survive and it most likely prevents you from being happy.
If you know people who might be affected by
Social Society Disorder, please do not mistake their
introversion for arrogance and try to comprehend their behaviour. Do not stop inviting them to social situations and give them time to warm up.
