Case Study 5: A 28-year-old woman is a rising junior executive in her investment company. Her increasing duties require her to make periodic formal presentations to the senior management of the company. However, she becomes intensely anxious at the thought of speaking in public. When she is forced to give a presentation she begins to feel anxious days in advance of the talk and the anxiety increases as the time for the talk approaches. She is concerned that her anxiety will become noticeable during the talk or that she will do something to embarrass herself.
2.) This patient is suffering from Social Phobia.
3.) She needs standard drugs in order to calm herself down and possibly group therapy.
4.) This woman gets scared about social situations where she risks embarrassing herself. She starts thinking about them weeks in advance and this will actually increase her chances of embarrassing herself at the time of the social situation. If she would take drugs to calm her nerves and decrease her fear of embarrassment then she would be fine.
