hello Aimee
I'm going through exactly the same. I'm absolutly petrified to talk to people, I just can't relax when i'm talking to someone , I have a problem to give an eye contact,I can't swallow, I start to blush , sometimes my hands start to shake, my heart is beating fast , I can get a massive anxiety attack in the middle of a conversation....all I want to do is to run away and I usually find an excuse and leave. Then I'm so angry with myself, I feel stupid, angry , humiliated and embarassed. I feel like everybody is thinking I'm such a looser and that I'm pathetic too.
I hate to feel this way ! Is this me for the rest of my life ?
