I'm incredibly uncomfortable around people, yet I do not have catastrophizing imaginations, paranoid delusions, and my social skills are decent. In other words, my emotional register and cognitive processes are normal, but my physiological reaction is almost that of meeting a dangerous animal. How can this be explained? Is this social anxiety?
I got a hold of some Oxazepam and experimented a bit with dosages. I found that 30-45mg made me feel more relaxed in public places, feel normal around people
