Social Anxiety Disorder, sometimes called Social Phobia or SAD, involves anxiety and a overwhelming constant self-consciousness in everyday social interactions. People with Social Anxiety Disorder have an intense fear that they are being watched or judged by others, or they may have a fear of being embarrassed or humiliated by their own actions.
Also, for example, if there is a certain situation planned two weeks ahead of time, a SAD sufferer may worry for days in advance.
Social Anxiety Disorder can make it hard to meet, and keep friends, or doing anything in front of others like eating, or drinking.
