I never new a person could have social anxiety but it sounds like something I have and always tried to over come.People said to me it is all in your head and gave me tips like try looking at the audience nude.Silly advice that didn't not work for me.I realize that some of this social anxiety comes from my younger years and happened at social events where people I knew and loved at the time had put me down infront of people so many times.It is ashame how people don't think how incidents like that can affect a person later on in life.Thanks for the insight because I feel frightened just thinking I have to socialize even if it is a small gathering. I am afraid I am going to embarass my friends,thats what was told to me back when,when I enjoyed socializing I remember that it use to be fun.
