Ways to Beat Social Anxiety

In this video I am going to explain what the best treatment for Social Anxiety is. There are two options, the first is a talking therapy called Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT, the second is medication. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) has been found to be the most effective treatment for Social Anxiety so in the video I will talk through what this involves first. Medication has been found to be far less helpful and is only really prescribed in conjunction with the talking therapy CBT and when someone's symptoms are severe enough that they are interfering with their ability to engage with the therapy. I hope that the information is helpful. Is there is anything that you would like to see on this channel which you don’t, please pop your suggestion in the comments and I will do my best to make you a video. If you have any questions then please post your comments below and I will do my best to help.
