Social phobia is a subtype of phobia. Phobia was originally called phobic neurosis, which is a type of neurosis. The main manifestation is excessive and unreasonable fear of certain objective things or situations in the outside world. The patient knows that this fear reaction is excessive or unreasonable, but it still recurs and is difficult to control. Fear attacks are often accompanied by obvious anxiety and autonomic nervous system symptoms. Patients try their best to avoid the objective objects or situations that cause fear, or endure them with fear, thus affecting their normal activities. Common phobia subtypes include agoraphobia, social phobia, and specific phobia.
