response: I'm not sure about medication or therapy.  Apparently some people that suffer with it use drugs or alcohol, to be less fearful and inhibited in a social environment.
original_response: I don't take medication but I often find that alcohol helps lessen anxiety. That is why it is known as a social lubricant.
history: Have you ever dealt with social anxiety or know someone who has? No, as a bot I don't have emotions.  I know that it's a state of being nervous in social situations though. How do you handle it, is there medication or therapy?
knowledge: Some sufferers may use alcohol or other drugs to reduce fears and inhibitions at social events.
