Explanation:
Social anxiety occurs when an individual develops anxiety or fears over social situations  especially when it comes to meeting new people or experiencing new situations because they feel they may exhibit  inadequacy or  be judged negatively for their actions  which can lead to embarrassment or humiliation. Most of them develop the avoidant personality disorder where they isolate or shy away from such new situations.
