    So what about people that got bullied during childhood? Sociological problems like being afraid to be judged? There are so many reasons for one to be socially anxious, it really does not come down to simply PTSD. You also seem to be mixing social anxiety with social anxiety disorder. I don’t think anyone mentioned disorder, which is what you’re referring to.

      About your first statement, doesn’t being bullied, or becoming afraid of being judged, count as trauma? Theres not a hard threshold beyond which abuse becomes trauma.

      About the second, I took for granted that we were including anxiety disorder because this all started with brains doing an emergency shutdown because of a great deal of anxiety. Maybe it was hyperbole and I replied too quick, but I seriously hate when mental illnesses get taken lightly, they’re very serious and unfortunate conditions.
