Performance Anxiety



Performance, or non-generalized, anxiety disorder is a type of social anxiety disorder that affects a person when they are confronted with specific performance situations that increase their anxiety.

There is a feeling of fear of being under the scrutiny by others. Some of the examples of performance anxiety are singing in public, reading, presenting a report at an office meeting and public speeches.

Under normal circumstances, the person remains calm.
