This is a symptom indicative of Social Anxiety Disorder. Anxiety will not
let someone feel joy. At the same time, the person does not want others to realize that she
is anxious and not enjoying the party (things deemed as negative). To avoid this, the person
simulates being joyful and spends the whole time striving to show it. When going home, she
is mentally spent.

Social Anxiety Disorder: Do I have it?
This can be a sign of Social Anxiety Disorder.
Anxiety can show in the body in several ways, through paths which are shock organs,
where the energy flows to. However, as it is chaotic energy, its outcomes
are unproductive most of the time. In this case, there is a spasm of several
muscles linked to breathing and speech, and the person cannot utter sounds.
Temporary loss of the function in the shock-plagued organ may be related
to the roots of anxiety. If the person is convinced of his inability
to speak in a group, this muteness can occur. At other times, the shock
organ will not show any relation to eventual roots of anxiety. A case
in point is diarrhea in such occasions. Genetic
