Taijin Kyofusho

Just thought this condition was interesting, since many others in this community have social anxiety issues like me.

It's a condition called Taijin Kyofusho, and is a culture-specific mental condition in Japan that is best described as the phobia of offending or harming others. I'm curious to know, since we could be considered "not the cultural norm" if people here have this type of social phobia.
