    *Anxiety of going outside the house and socializing other


    people within the community.
    - Earlier, the DSM-I and -II (APA 1952, 1968) grouped it
    with all other phobias, and to this day psychologists
    still refer to SAD as social phobia (SP; Furmark 2002;
    Hudson and Rapee 2000).
    People with SAD are also less likely to marry than those
    who do not have this disorder. Overall, there is a
    reduction in quality of life, an increase in alcohol and
    drug misuse and a risk of suicide (Baldwin and Buis
    2004). Unfortunately, most cases go untreated given there
    is a relative lack of awareness of the symptoms by the
    general population (Furmark 2002; Schneier 2006). Source:
    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2515922/
    Therefore, the purpose of this study is to provide
    information about the current problem of the world, give
    awareness, what is the sign and symptoms of having
    anxiety and on how they can cope with this problem.
    Another, is to promote empowerment within ourselves.

    *The increase number of suicide due to the current


    situation of the world.
    - Suicide prevention is given a low priority in many
    Western Pacific countries due to competing health problems,
    stigma and poor understanding of its incidence and
    etiology. Little is known about the epidemiology of suicide
    and suicidal behaviour in the Philippines. Source:
    https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3146433/
    Therefore, the goals of this study is to enhance the
    knowledge about the causes of suicide and what are the sign
    and symptoms of this and to provide alternative activities
    to help someone in this situation.
