I've had similiar thoughts and feelings.
I have always been real shy, I have no
idea what to say to people and even when I
do, i'm quiet because I am afraid of
saying something stupid.
Have you tried cognitive therapy? It has
proven to be quite helpful. Right now
you have all these negative affirmations.
You have paranoid thoughts that people do
not like you or are talking behind your
back, when in reality that is probably not
true. You have to replace these constant
negative thoughts with positive ones until
the positive thughts finally become habit.
