  1. No, but there are varying degrees of social anxiety. There are a lottt of ways to go about improving things but the most effective is to keep yourself busy and work out. Working out is a good start not so much for the ohysical advantages but the mental ones. It can really help your perspective on a lot of things including social situations. You just feel more present around others when you exercise, not as far out of the moment and into your head

  2. As long as you keep viewing yourself as anxious, you will end up acting that way. People will notice and feel that vibe coming from you. People notice the way you carry yourself and the vibes you give off. When you are nervous/anxious/overthinking/worrying about who you are and what you are, your verbal and nonverbal actions tend to show it. If you keep acting this way, people will stop associating with you because it’s a negative vibe. You are essentially conveying that you are indeed unworthy to hold a conversation with them or be around them and that they need to be constantly reassuring you. That’s not what you want to convey, and it’s nobody else’s job but your own to validate and reassure yourself. People gravitate towards self confidence, not anxiety. Find something you enjoy doing in life and keep doing that overtime. You will build much needed self confidence and self esteem. Chase excellence, not people.
