Hundove, I'm in the same boat as you. Introverted, shy, social phobias that cause me to become overly self-consciousl in most social situations. I don't have much of a problem speaking in public [I'm a college professor], but all of the rest of what you describe could be me.
I don't have any advice to add that's any better than what the others have said here, but I did want to encourage you and tell you that you've at least identified the problem and sought help, which is at least a good first step.
Good luck, and I hope things improve for you.
Gilda
