I have social anxiety please read description?

First of all, you have to stop with the "what if _____" kind of thinking. What if a tornado strikes your house in your sleep tonight? What if an asteroid hits Earth tomorrow? What if I win the lottery and have to pay 40% of it in taxes? What if I go to the store to buy milk and all the have is low fat?

Just remind yourself that it is better to try and fail than to not have tried at all.

That being said, practice goes a long way. If you have a presentation, make yourself a script and read it aloud over and over again. The more you do it, the easier it will be. Once you think you have it down, ask a parent or friend to be a practice audience and do it a couple of times in front of them.

As for social interactions, I never did well socially in an academic environment. I made my best friends at work. So when you are able, find yourself a part-time job that hires other people your age. The routine responsibilities of work will keep you distracted when you have nothing to talk about but as you are around the more, you will become more and more comfortable socializing with them.

Hang in there. It really does get better. I know, I used to be exactly like you.
