Hi Tepiaca-
I have social anxiety too- sometimes it is worse than other times. It sounds like lately it has been worse. What I have learned about all of the anxiety is that is usually gets piled on top of each other and the anxiety is usually covering up what is really causing the anxiety. For example, when I start to think about problems with my parents I might become more anxious and obsess about little things more (I have OCD) but the underlying cause is that I am upset or anxious about talking to my folks or something like that. Of course I didn't figure this out on my own but through therapy, but it makes sense, doesn't it? Eveeryone is different but you can try and take a few moments and see if you can find out if there is this one big thing that is bothering you or if in general things are more stressful. Talking to a friend or even a hotline is helpful.
