What Is Social Anxiety?
8. Prevention
Not being able to predict who will develop the disorder also means it is all but impossible to prevent. However, it is possible for us to help prevent things from getting worse for people who have developed the condition. Treatment is easier and more effective when treatment is found quickly.
One way to help prevent the condition from worsening is to try and avoid alcohol and drugs. Try to live at least a reasonably healthy life and also try and make sure you eat well and get some exercise. Also try and make some for the things you enjoy doing. Most important of all, however, is to speak to a professional about your symptoms.
