What Is Social Anxiety Disorder?
8. Prevention
Preventing social anxiety disorder is very difficult because it is so difficult to be able to tell who will develop the condition. However, spotting the signs early and getting professional assistance can make it easier for the professionals to treat the condition. If you know somebody else who is showing symptoms then you should try and encourage them to speak with somebody.
One way to help prevent the condition from getting worse is to avoid using substances like drugs and alcohol. While these might provide short term relief from the symptoms, they are only likely to exasperate the condition in the long term.
