Individuals with this disorder experience intense fear of being negatively evaluated by others or of being publicly embarrassed because of impulsive acts. Almost everyone experiences &quot;stage fright&quot; when speaking or performing in front of a group. Since occasionally there are artists or performers with social anxiety disorder who are able to perform publicly without significant anxiety, their love of performing and practicing their art may be diminishing their anxiety. Even such high-functioning phobics such as </font><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenn_Gould" title="Glenn Gould"><font color="#c0c0c0">Glenn Gould</font></a><font color="#c0c0c0"> experience anxiety in performance.
