Does this sound like an anxiety disorder to you?

Asked by rockfan (14627points) December 24th, 2012 from iPhone

I’m visiting my relatives in another state, and I went to a Barnes & Noble today. It was a different layout than I was used to and I felt incredibly awkward. I’ve had similar experiences in new situations like these and I have a hard time moving by body naturally and making eye contact with people.

I pretend to look at things that I’m not even interested in order to avoid contact. People that see me probably assume that I’m in some sort of distress. And I know it’s completely irrational, but it’s uncontrollable. Has anyone else experienced this?
