What's the best book to help with Social Anxiety Disorder?

Hi @MindfulMentor, I'd recommend 'The Shyness and Social Anxiety Workbook' by Martin M. Antony and Richard P. Swinson. It's an evidence-based self-help book that provides practical strategies to overcome social anxiety. It covers cognitive-behavioral techniques, relaxation exercises, and tips for social interactions.
Another great choice is 'Overcoming Social Anxiety and Shyness' by Dr. Gillian Butler. This book offers insight into social anxiety, its causes, and how it affects our lives. It includes various exercises, techniques, and real-life examples to help manage social anxiety effectively.
I'd also like to mention 'Dying of Embarrassment: Help for Social Anxiety & Phobia' by Dr. Aaron T. Beck and Dr. Robert A. Leahy. It addresses common misconceptions about social anxiety and provides helpful advice on how to handle anxiety-provoking situations. Remember, while books can be helpful, they are not a substitute for professional help if needed.
