Thank you, that’s good advice. I’ve been improving at it slowly over the years, but it feels like babysteps. I’m now trying to learn to be proud of and happy with any small progress, that helps a bit. Also I try to focus more on the other person in conversations instead of on my own thoughts and sensations.
It sounds like you are doing what you can to get better. You have every reason to be proud! Social anxiety is hard to address, so any progress is to be celebrated. Keep going, keep working on it - it does get better.
