    9(fear) + 7(avoidance) = 16. You do not suffer from social anxiety.

    If I would have taken this test, say, a year ago, I would have scored at LEAST moderate social anxiety, probably marked. Now I'm SUPER outgoing. If anyone on here could see the before and after with me, you'd know, there IS hope for overcoming social anxiety!!

    Your score:
    42(fear) + 40(avoidance) = 82
    You have severe social phobia.

    :icon_sad:

    Not telling me anything I didn't know already.

    I've been diagnosed with social anxiety since my teen years and probably experienced it even earlier. Been a lifelong struggle to deal with, though I feel that lately I'm finally making some progress out of it with a combination of talk therapy and being all drugged up.

    Not really scared of social situations...though I am very scared/anxious, mainly about money, and not getting kicked out 'cause I can't afford rent, living paycheck to paycheck, and hoping nothing bad comes up that wipes me out. That's where I'm so anxious, even drugs aren't a big help.

    10 and 22 which gives me 32. I'm not too surprised but I thought I'd score a bit higher

    I'd probably be a lot worse off if I had social anxiety...

    Your score:
    54(fear) + 53(avoidance) = 107
    You have very severe social anxiety.

    Not a shock, I've been officially diagnosed with it for a while, and it affects my life in several aspects, every day of my life. A few years back, I'm sure my score would have been worse though.

    I'm not surprised. My worst fear is public speaking or any kind of talking really

    54 + 47 = 101

    It's an approvement since I last took it. Last time it was over 110. But still fairly bad.

    Well, basically, I dunno. I just don't have anywhere near the problems I used to. I did dye my hair green, but I suppose that is unrelated.

    Would but I had taken that a year ago it'd have been a 91 for sure. Not keeping secrets is kind of an awesome way to live.
