I have social anxiety sometimes, but some other times I have genuine confidence. I prefer to be authentic, yet should I overcome my anxiety?

Social anxiety is very different mostly because it is not shyness and that's what people think. Do you have a core group of friends that you hang out with? Or even just one good friend?

Perhaps, going to a psychologist or a psychiatrist will help. Sometimes they have meds that can take the edge of the anxiety. I know a girl who takes one little pill a day for this.

Yes. I have a good friend and some other friends. I go to a psychologist. I also take some meds.

You could see a doctor and get some meds for anxiety.

I take some meds. It's due to the fact that I moved to another country and speaking a foreign languages could make you feel anxious.

That makes sense.
