I notice I spend a lot of time fearing that someone "might be" angry at me, and trying to avoid peoples' anger and judgment (which in turn probably keeps me out of a good deal of social situations, which saddens me).

I feel like this must be a common trait. Can anyone point me to any resources or books on this topic?

Thanks
