Brief Answer: Follows. Detailed Answer: Dear Madam, Thank you for posting your query on HCM. Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that it is very difficult to comment on this situation as we dont know the intensity with which you face the symptoms but yes it can be both anxiety or some kind of phobia that is present . If it is affecting your socialising then I would advise you to see a psychiatrist because a detailed conversation will be necessary to see and assess you. You should stop worrying and seek medical help for this as it will be a treatable thing. Take care. Dr. Shruti
