Worst degree course for someone with social anxiety disorder

For those who suffer with or have suffered with social anxiety disorder, what do you consider to be the worst degree course to study?

I would say drama, followed by languages.
Definitely agree with you about languages. Talking aloud every class, speaking exams, living abroad and being forced to speak everyday. Argh! :afraid:

I'm not sure if this is a hypothetical question for you, but anyone who suffers from shyness or social anxiety shouldn't be put off drama if that's what they're passionate about. There are plenty of actors (some extremely successful - Henry Fonda apparently was one) who are very reserved, but are comfortable when pretending to be someone else.
