Abstract
This case centers on Yazhini, a recent high school graduate who is moving to Mumbai, a bustling metropolis, to attend college. Yazhini suffers from social phobia and feels anxious in social situations, especially in the busy campus atmosphere, despite her talent and curiosity. Participation in class, group projects, and campus activities become major obstacles that affect her academic standing and personal relationships. Her dread of being judged and her isolation prevent her from interacting with her peers. Yazhini eventually turns to the university's counselling facilities for assistance since her well-being is negatively impacted by social anxiety. She discovers the causes of her anxiety and creates coping skills in treatment. With the help of counselling and the understanding guidance of a kind counsellor, Yazhini gradually faces her worries. To support mental health, the institution offers programmes like social skills training and peer mentorship. Yazhini's journey is a tale of tenacity and self-realization. She flourishes intellectually and starts advocating for mental health awareness on school after gaining greater confidence. Her life-changing encounter highlights the need of identifying and treating social anxiety in the classroom, demonstrating the value of asking for assistance and creating a supportive, inclusive atmosphere for children dealing with social phobia.
