"Everyone gets nervous in some social situations. Without a little anxiety, we wouldn't be normal! Be too much can be crippling, exhausting, and overwhelming. While some experts claim that social anxiety can be cured, Dr. Eric Goodman, a clinical psychologist, author, and speaker who specializes in helping people face their social fears and anxiety disorders, disagrees. The truth is, your social anxiety is never going to disappear. It's not a disease, and it cannot be cured. But this doesn't mean that you can't move forward, and go on to live a large, happy, open and sociable life. You just need to learn how to survive and thrive with your anxiety..."--Publisher's description.
