How to Combat Social Anxiety at Raves & Music Festivals
The topic of coping and dealing with social anxiety at raves and music festivals has been on the rise. According to Social Anxiety Association, SAD (Social Anxiety Disorder) is the third-largest mental health problem in the world, but here’s the paradox. A survey conducted by Harris Poll and Eventbrite found that more than 75 percent of millennials would rather pay for an experience than material things. The rave and music festival scene is once again booming due to the rising demand after the 2020/2021 COVID lockdowns shut the world down. With things on the way back to the norm with raves and music festivals, you can bet that more and more people in the community are wondering how they will ever be able to cope with their social anxiety. The generation that loves to attend raves and music festivals is also the generation that suffers the most from anxiety. It is a paradox that can only be addressed by bringing more awareness to the problem.
