Possible to have anxiety without social anxiety?

[Izthewiz]

Hello friends.
It may seem like an odd question,but is it possible to have anxiety without social anxiety?
In public I'm totally relaxed and can be in a busy store and not worried just shopping and having a good time.
Also I love malls and miss the environment.
I can pretty much spark up a conversation with strangers pretty easily.
Over the summer I went to The Magic The Gathering Grand Prix and no issues and had a blast with over 3000 people in a small location.

Of course! Social anxiety is just one of many types of anxiety. There's generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, health anxiety, and so on. Not everyone with general or health anxiety has social anxiety, and vice versa.

I get more anxiety when I’m alone with my thoughts than if I’m around people. When I’m in the “hustle and bustle” of life, it provides a distraction from my anxiety. That’s why I like busy jobs, crafting and going out to stay busy. It provides relief from my anxiety issues.

All anxiety is not social related. Some fear illnesses. Others hate enclosed spaces. Hence the many sections on this forum. For various types of anxiety.

Its true, there are a lot of different anxieties. People can be anxious of just about anything. Its a temporary mental state of mind, that has bursts of alertness. Usually.
