What is the causes of social anxiety?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Interacting factors!: Social anxiety is usually caused by several interacting factors. A person can have a genetic or neurological vulnerability (for example more sensitivity to fear or anxiety); certain experiences (such as being rejected a lot) or living in a specific stressful environment (for example high performance expectations) can act on these vulnerabilities resulting in social anxiety.
