Hi,
It was cool to read the list you wrote in your blog.
I could also relate to the part about being very anxious in social situations-- I used to get that way too. I actually was diagnosed with 'social anxiety disorder' which is just a fancy way of describing shyness.
Anyway, it may not be for you, but I just wanted to pass on that I made a lot of progress with that by going to Social Anxiety Anonymous telephone support groups.
(They are a non-profit, not a business, and very cool and supportive and encouraging, plus their groups are free).
Anyway, I would call into the groups and there is never any pressure to talk at all (its OK to just listen) and they share lots of helpful healing tools for Social Anxiety / Shyness / whatever you want to call it-- and although it took time for it to start to work, it eventually helped me a lot: http://www.healsocialanxiety.com
One more thing, I just read that you also hate telephones (is that part of the anxiety?).
If so, Social Anxiety Anonymous also has local support groups in some areas.
Plus one thing about the telephone conference call support groups groups-- you don't have to speak at all-- so you can actually just listen, even for weeks or months, and still learn a lot as they share all kinds of healing tools for social anxiety...
Have a good one!
