Overcoming Social Anxiety was HARD, but it changed my life…

Hi fellow social anxiety fighters! I'm Heidi. I'm 24 and I live in Milwaukee. I've dealt with social anxiety my entire life. I can't remember a time when I didn't feel nervous about something. My anxiety has focused around food mostly; whether people were monitoring what I was eating, whether people would judge me for what I ordered, whether something would be too expensive, you get the idea.

Measuring Social Anxiety: Social Anxiety Tests, Scales & Inventories

Measuring Social Anxiety: Social Anxiety Tests, Scales & Inventories

The Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS) is a short questionnaire used to measure how social anxiety plays a role in different life situations. This social anxiety test was developed in 1987 by Dr. Michael R. Liebowitz, a psychiatrist and researcher at Columbia University. Studies have shown the LSAS to be a cost-effective and efficient way to identify those with social anxiety.
