Social Anxiety Cures
Social Anxiety Disorder, also known simply as Social Phobia or Social Anxiety is perhaps the most commone form of Anxiety Disorder known.
In fact, it’s so common that it is believed to affect somewhere around 10% of the entire population in one degree or another.
What’s more, it can affect absolutely anyone – from housewife to movie star.
Renowned entertainers who have spent years in the public eye — from Barbara Streisland to Kim Basinger — have spoken publicly of their experience and recovery from Social Phobia and anxiety.
And the effects of Social Anxiety Disorder and social phobia can be truly debilitating, if not devastating.
Very often physical symptoms accompany this disorder. These can include blushing and sweating, trembling, increased heart rate, stammering and nausea. In acute cases, the person may feel dizzy and as if he or she is about to pass out.
All this, of course, simply serves to intensify the fear.
The real fear behind this particular disorder is often the fear of being evaluated and judged negatively by others. This fear can force the individual to become fearful and terrified of doing anything that has the potential to prove embarrassing to them in public.
Some of the really common forms are fear of general or specific social encounters and social interaction, fear of public speaking, fear of dealing with authority figures, fear of exams, fear of public speaking and fear regarding sexual performance.
Most often, this particular difficulty has its origin in childhood.
In fact, the World Psychiatric Association has estimated that about 40% of such Phobias originate before the age of 10, and an enormous 95% manifest themselves before the age of 20. And this appears to be the case, even though the actual symptoms may not become apparent until later on in life.
Left unresolved and untreated, Depression can develop and some may turn to alcohol and drugs in order to cope.
All too frequently the medical response to social phobia and Social Anxiety Disorder is to simply drug it, often with anti-anxiety medication – particularly favored are drugs from the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor group (SSIRs) such as paroxetine (Paxil or Seroxat).
If Psychotherapy is offered, it usually comes in the form of CBT — Cognitive Beviour Therapy.
While both these approaches may provide a degree of relief to some sufferers, the emphasis of both is on managing the symptoms rather than actually treating and removing the underlying cause and drivers.
And, in the experience of this therapist, as long as the drivers remain intact then, sooner or later, the anxiety will return – and all too often with a vengeance.
There is another way.
You see, the subconscious mind – that repository of beliefs – is merely attempting to protect the person from what it perceives to be danger, and so is manufacturing intense feelings of anxiey or fear so that he or she will be kept safe from harm. But the subconscious has got it wrong. It is basing its faulty response on previous conditioning that is simply no longer appropriate.
With modern advanced Hypnotherapy techniques we can reach deep within the subconscious mind, to where those feelings are generated, and adjust the faulty beliefs that are keeping the anxiety ‘program’ running.
Once this is accomplished, the symptoms – social phobia and social anxiety – just become extinct because there is nothing there to drive them anymore.
If you or someone you care about suffer from the truly debilitating effects of social anxiety disorder or social phobia, don’t despair, real and effective help is available.
With modern and advanced hypnotherapy techniques, you can be returned to your true nature and be released from that old anxiety and fear for good.
