An anxiety disorder characterized by extreme self-consciousness in normal social situations, including the fear that one is being judged or observed by all those around them. Social anxiety causes people to fear being humiliated or embarrassed much more than is normal. People with social anxiety disorder know that their fear is irrational and yet still avoid any situation in which they may be evaluated or judged.
Social phobics, like those with Avoidant Personality Disorder, may develop defences against their fears, such as denying that they fear social situations or defending themselves through insensetivity.
Holy crap, a factual entry into Urban Dictionary?!
A person with social anxiety may avoid public speaking.

The overwhelming feeling of panic you get just before meeting someone (possibly a serial killer) from Craigslist to buy or sell goods.
Craigslist anxiety causes you to wonder why you play Russian Roulette with your life to buy a discounted pair of speakers or sell something that probably should have been chucked in the garbage.
I just had the worst case of Craigslist anxiety, but I lived and scored the cheapest copy of Rosetta Stone ever!

An affliction of males characterized by unusual behaviours in the men's room. Urinal anxiety is manifest in the actions of a man who walks into the men's room and heads directly toward the urinals, but -upon seeing another man already standing at a nearby urinal- immediately changes course for the stalls. Urinal anxiety afflicts a substantial number of males who have a phobia about pissing in a location where another male might notice their schlong (as if other males would have an interest in someone else's schlong...). The most extreme form of urinal anxiety is usually seen in locations using the old "trough" urinals often placed in ball park restrooms. The afflicted male approaches the other happy, piss-spattering companions, pulls his dick out, and... and... and... (after a long delay) zips his dick back up, unable to urinate, and shame-facedly departs the restroom unsatisfied.
Damn, Frank never uses the urinals. The other day he went into the women's room at the ball park to avoid the trough. I think he's gripped by urinal anxiety.

Not being able to go to the bathroom in an unfamiliar or public place, or while other people are around, in fear that they may hear you. Mainly occuring with dookies, but can also happen with peeing. Cured by going home and using your own bathroom.
"I've been on vacation for a week and still have not taken a crap. I think I'm becoming constipated due to bathroom anxiety."

The overwhelming hangxiety that one feels after a big night out, often while eating a sad regretful breakfast.
“Gosh Sheila. This is one hell of an anxiety breakfast. Last night was heavy”
“Not looking forward to our anxiety breakfast tomorrow”
“Seriously guys, I feel so anxiety breakfast”
When someone is quite uncomfortable talking on the phone, they tend to get nervous or forget what to say

Toby has such bad phone anxiety he doesn't even like to call his girlfriend but would rather text her and leave it at that
Anxiety that is triggered by the sight or smell or even the mere anticipation of coming into contact with a banana.
Her sometimes disabling banana anxiety was connected, although entirely unconsciously, to the fact that on so many occasions, bananas had been harbingers of horrible events.
