I hate when people who know me tell me I could benefit from therapy-counseling. For what?

I don't think it's my fault that people confuse being shy (to a degree) with social anxiety. I mean I would be the first to admit I have social anxiety. Maybe I do, but if I do it's just a trace or traces of it in certain situations. I hate that people over-exaggerate and over-react when I explain a social situation that could have possibly gone better than it did.

It's really annoying.
