    I struggled with anxiety as well (socially). This may sound a bit weird but I actually got a lot of relief from volunteering at an animal shelter to help play and walk the dogs. I got a little exercise and felt that no one judged me since I was there to help them! In the end I have now rescued 2 dogs and they have to be walked daily so it I was able to gain confidence in that it wasn't for me, but them! The volunteer work was great though since it was a double boost of confidence since i got some exercise in and got gushed over for helping (by the dogs and the staff!!). There has been a lot of great advice given, but I thought I'd share what initally helped me, even if it is a bit different! Good Luck to you - you can ROCK this! As Les Brown says - "You Have GREATNESS in You"!
