Why do I feel socially anxious

If you keep asking why do I feel socially anxious, it usually means social interaction may be carrying enough perceived threat that your nervous system prepares for judgment, awkwardness, or rejection before the moment has fully unfolded. Social anxiety symptoms often feels less like one moment and more like a repeated inner position.

Anxiety around people often affects body tension, thought speed, self-monitoring, and post-event replay all at once.
