"There is no official name for the fear of ordering food. But the problem may be more closely linked social anxiety/social phobia. " There should be a name for it. I'm not shy at all but as soon as the waitress comes to take my order its all over. I swear I'd flee the place if I was alone.
I could have a totally normal conversation with the clerk/waiter & then completely blank when I have to order.
One time I was getting pick up I chatted with the clerk & then he asked what I needed & in a high pitched voice with wide eyes I relied 0o0 pick up for dirrio *Hold 20$'s 10ft in front of me*

I know exactly how you feel. I freak out as soon as I feel that I have to do any of those things alone.

I also have this irrational fear of ordering food or buying groceries in the check-out line. If anyone knows what this is called, please respond!
