How do you know if you have it?

[God_help_Us]

I probably don't have it full blown, but I only have a limited number of places I feel comfortable outside my home, the gym being one. While I don't panic in public, I don't particularly enjoy going out that much. How do you know if you have it?

I feel abit like you do. I have been told i have it and i am currently seeing a therapist. I can and do go out with other ppl but i dont like going out on my own infact i hate it. I wasnt sure what was wrong with me and went to my gp who said i should try cbt and i went along to an appointment and it was there i was told i had social anxiety.
