Understanding Social Anxiety - Part III


12 years ago 0 36 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hello again Ashley!
 
I am a person who has social anxiety disorder as well as depression, but I am currently taking Lexapro to help me, and I think it has helped me improve my social anxiety and depression a considerable amount. I also have not seen any side effects with Lexapro. I did not enjoy Prozac because there were too many side effects I had, such as suicidal idealizations and unbearable nausea in cars.
 
I am glad to contribute to this topic!

Members,

Over the past few days we’ve lightly touched on a variety of issues that often affect relationships. Today we will discuss one more…

Due to the physical & psychological symptoms in addition to negative thoughts that can quickly invade, individuals with anxiety or depression often withdraw from others. As a result, these same individuals may feel uncomfortable in social situations. As this anxiety around social situations grows, the individual can develop what is called social anxiety disorder.

Are any members currently struggling with this issue? Let it off your chest, tell us about it!
 
Ashley, Health Educator
