Social Anxiety can be overcome by behavioral therapy. You can do I yourself at home. Flooding, a form of behavioral therapy, is particularly helpful for people with social anxiety. To practice flooding, simply expose yourself to as many social situations as possible, and feel the anxiety. Gradually, your anxiety related to social events will diminish and disappear.
