For many of us going to a music festival or surround ourselves with a big crowd is something quite normal and quite fun. However, there are people who avoid mixing with big crows. Some get quite stressed and sick if they have to socialize in such circumstances and it is due to their social anxiety disorder.

How bad can social anxiety get?

According to a university student diagnosed with it, doing presentations or going to festivals are activities that feel much more difficult than manual labor.  One such person remembers when she had to make a uni presentation. She and the fellow colleagues put a lot of effort into it. However, having to present a presentation can make some people feel physically sick, faint or vomit due to the stress they suffer.

Social anxiety can ruin the social lives of many

Petter McEvoy, professor of clinical psychology at Curtin University, explains that social anxiety is a condition which has to be dealt with continuously. Even before a presentation or a gathering with many people, those suffering from social anxiety already begin to feel stressed and sometimes the feeling continues even after the gathering.
