Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD) and Addiction

Social anxiety disorder, or social phobia, and addiction can go hand in hand.

Social anxiety disorder can be described as an “overpowering self consciousness” that does not allow a person to be able to interact with others in normal and everyday situations.

This can lead the person to use drugs or alcohol as a way of coping with their disorder. Social anxiety disorder completely disrupts a person’s life, if it is combined with a drug or alcohol addiction, it can be extremely destructive.

Social Anxiety Disorder Explained

Social anxiety disorder, SAD, or social phobia is an intense fear that a person has. This fear is of being embarrassed, humiliated, or negatively judged by other people, typically in social situations.

It is not just a feeling of being shy or nervous, the anxiety or fear of these situations is so intense that a person suffering from SAD will do anything to avoid the situations.
