I am similar, without the smoking. Stimulants probably make it worse. I seem to be pretty well liked, too, but can't stand crowds. Oddly enough, I've always liked performing, but getting out in front of a crowd to do so is very stressing.....
My main niggling quirk is, I have a hard time going out of my house to do yard work, because I'm afraid the neighbours will see me. Don't know why, because I didn't have a problem going to the neighbourhood barbecue/pool party a few weeks ago. Lots of people saw me there....
