Hi. I have self-diagnosed social anxiety disorder. I was wondering if it's, in any way, linked to generalized anxiety disorder? I mean, I have a few of the symptoms (i.E. Becoming tired very easily, having difficulty concentrating or remembering, and having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, or not feeling rested after sleep.). But other symptoms lead to s.A.D. (i.E. Sweating when in social situations, self-consciousness when in social situations, anxiety at the thought of social-situations, etc.). Is it possible to have both disorders at the same time? And, also, I was wondering if medicine that caters, specifically, to depression and generalized anxiety disorder can be used for social anxiety disorder. I was prescribed paxil, but then the doctor changed it up to something for depression and gad. Would that medicine still help me out with the sad? (btw, my mind tends to go blank primarily during social interactions..., so I don't know if it counts as a symptom toward gad.)

please help me out with this... Thank you for your time...
