Causes of Social Phobia
There is a certain consensus among
psychotherapist that the
causes of
Social Phobia are situated in the individual's life experiences.
However, there is disagreement in their reading of such experiences.
Next, we will discuss the topics
most pointed to as causes. They display some contradictions,
and include causes outside life experiences.
-- The self is made fragile by certain life experiences.
-- One learns to respond with
anxiety to
social performance situations.
-- False
belief is developed about oneself, the world or other persons.
-- Very low
self-esteem.
-- Learning to respond with anxiety to performance social situations.
-- In addition to many negative
concept about oneself, a
feeling of
personal
potentially
aggressive .
-- Ill-resolved relationship with father and/or mother in the first years of
life.
-- Personal barriers precluding expression of natural personal-growth
forces.
--
Genetic factors.
-- Reduced
learning of
social skills.
-- Defects in the
neurotransmitter bring about alarm reactions in social
performance situations.
Therefore, there is a wide-ranging group of causes.
It is important for some sectors to know the causes of disorder because
this knowledge will make changes possible. For others, knowing the causes
is not necessary; in order to change, it suffices that the individual or
organism learn other responses different from anxiety in social
performance situations.
