As someone with formerly severe social anxiety (more like moderate/mild now), I can definitely relate to the structured/directed conversations being vastly easier. When I do a presentation I don't feel much anxiety but unstructured conversation is still a nightmare. Especially considering I enjoy darker humor so I feel like I'm constantly on edge so that I don't accidentally say something offensive.
