Causes of Social Anxiety Disorder


moderncavedweller.com Some people are able to mask their discomfort and go about their lives mildly uncomfortable in social situations, while others remain perpetually in a living hell. Those whose condition affects them to the degree that their lives are severely diminished are in need of treatment. Whats the cause of this phobic reaction to personal interaction? The causes may be either or both biological or learned. Its possible that the initial cause of social anxiety disorder is an underlying chemical imbalance affecting the neurotransmitter, serotonin. Some theorize that this imbalance restricts the way messages travel between nerve cells. This imbalance can alter the way people react during stressful situations. Research is still in its infancy. Conditioning as a result of childhood humiliation, psychological abuse, sheltering, nervous parents, lack of praise, an overabundance of criticism, trauma can have psychological ramifications resulting in social anxiety disorder. But the cause is not as important as the cure. To date, there is no complete cure, however there is treatment which can alleviate most of the symptoms and enable a person with this disorder to function happily and productively. If you know of someone that you believe suffers from this crippling disorder, understand and accept them, love them and get them into treatment. The successful completion of the treatment program can be like a rebirth for those who suffer from social anxiety disorder.

    Indeed I have wondered the exact same thing. I have read storys were people with SA have girl/boyfriends. How the hell do you do that? And kids? Sex for me is the most scariest thing in the world. Let alone get kids…

    I am glad I know some people and am able te keep contact through messenger, without that i would be in total isolation long ago…

    the problem is there are so many varying degrees of this sickness. and im in a position where even other sufferers do not understand me. the anxiety therapy groups i attended many of the people there were married and had kids and that concept floors me. how does someone with social anxiety dissorder get married and have kids? how does that happen? how the hell do you go about meeting anyone.

    Pills, therapy, books about the subconcious mind etc you name it.

    In my experience I can truly testify that only The Living GOD has healed me.
    Medications from doctors helped me a little and it was temporary.
    God’s healing power is ETERNAL!

    Now Im not an antidepressant pill dependent.
    The cure for fear is FAITH!
    Fear limits you.
    FAITH ENABLES YOU!

    People, THE ALMIGHTY GOD IS YOUR ONLY HOPE.
    READ THE WORD OF GOD, HAVE FAITH AND OBEY!

    God loves you and He wants you to LET HIM…
