Social anxiety disorder or SAD can make life much less enjoyable, sufferers avoid social situations because of fear of being judged or rejected.
Because of that it is really hard for socially anxious people to find friends.
There is social anxiety disorder cure available for everyone.
In this article I want to give you some tips how to find friends for people who suffer social anxiety disorder.
Because of suffering SAD often people think that they wont be accepted as who they are, so they may try to be someone who they are not, this is one of the biggest mistakes - always be who you are and you will be accepted.
It is really important to look approachable, easiest way to do that is to smile, that will make you look friendly and it's much more likely for new people to start talking to you.

This is because of anxiety, what you need to do is try to relax, which is not easy, but just try not to look at yourself, instead of checking your behavior focus on other people.
If you wont get any ideas what to talk about, there is no reason to start panicking, it is okay to have silence moments sometimes, even if they're really uncomfortable.
Don't think that asking questions might be nosey, this is one of the best things to do when there are no topics to talk about, just ask typical questions about work or school.
Of course don't add a question after question, it's good to add some comments sometimes or tell a little about yourself.
If a person asks a question from you, it is really likely that this person actually wants you to ask this question from him/her too.
Try to look interested and motivate person to talk more.

It's okay if you're not ready to do it, joining groups is a huge challenge for SAD sufferers, you will just need to work on your social anxiety disorder a little more and eventually you will be ready.
There are many ways to cure social anxiety disorder, for example taking group or private therapies.
Another good way to cure social anxiety disorder is to do it on your own, for that I suggest you to get a good book.
