Social Anxiety has many different aspects and may be brought on by a variety of less obvious causes. The onset of anxiety may be caused by a variety of genetic, environmental, and psychological variables, including the following:

• Family History
• Negative Life Experiences
• Temperament
• Medical conditions
• Substance abuse and medications
• New Social or Work Demands

It's important to note that each person’s experience with anxiety is unique and may have different causes. A mental health professional, such as our social anxiety counselor in Newport News, can help determine the cause of an individual's anxiety and develop an appropriate treatment plan. Understanding the cause of one's anxiety can help in addressing and managing it effectively.

When social anxiety is persistent and interferes with daily life, it can be considered as a disorder. The way social anxiety symptoms manifest might differ from person to person. The following are common signs of social anxiety disorder:

• Intense fear in social situations
• Worrying excessively
• Racing Heartbeat
• Sweating
• Difficulty speaking in social situations
• Excessive self-consciousness

Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health disorders in the United States, affecting millions of people each year. There are several different types of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, and specific phobias.

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is characterized by excessive, unrealistic worry and tension about everyday events and activities. People with GAD often anticipate disaster and may be constantly on guard for signs of danger.

Panic disorder is characterized by unexpected and repeated episodes of intense fear accompanied by physical symptoms such as heart palpitations, sweating, and shaking.

Social anxiety disorder, also known as social phobia, is a fear of being judged or scrutinized by others in social or performance situations. People with social anxiety disorder often avoid social situations or endure them with great distress.

Specific phobias are an intense fear of a specific object or situation, such as spiders, flying, or heights.
