Social Anxiety

Why is talking to others and attending social events so hard for me?

Social anxiety is so misunderstood. People with social anxiety deeply value social connections, but when the time comes, they often find themselves avoiding the very interactions they crave. The fear or discomfort they feel can make it incredibly hard to engage with others, even though they desperately want to. If you’ve ever felt the intense desire to connect with others but couldn’t, you’re not alone.
