<s>[INST] So I had a report to do on social anxiety disorder, and I ve always had a peoplephobia but I was doing research on SAD I realized that those symptoms are ones that I often experince when being around people, talking to strangers, etc. What are the chances that I have a social anxiety disorder [/INST] Degree understand your concerns went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. In one way everyone has their own anxiety symptoms. Some are anxious to talk to strangers, to talking on stage, to write exams, to be in a high place, to insects, to water and so on. The list is end less. If you categorize by just anxiety symptoms, everyone in the world will come under anxiety disorder. Therefore, to determine whether you have any social anxiety or not, first just ignore the symptoms for around 5 years. Then, if you feel, you can consult a psychologist.
