Social anxiety, dating and relationships
August 30, 2021
Social anxiety can be a problem for most people at some point in their lives. When it comes to dating, social anxiety can be the biggest hurdle to overcome when you are trying to find a relationship. Social anxiety makes even creating a dating profile, let alone meeting someone nerve wracking. In relationships, social anxiety can cause problems when one person finds social situations awkward and can disrupt an otherwise good relationship. So in this episode we are exploring social anxiety and some ways to help solve it.
Social anxiety can be one of the biggest problems for anyone wanting to find or develop a fulfilling relationship. Dating and relationships involve interacting with other people, so feeling more comfortable in social situations is crucial.

Some ways discussed to help with social anxiety include ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) and mindfulness.
