I like Perna's suggestion.
You have every right to take care of yourself, and you shouldn't do anything that makes you uncomfortable. At the same time, if your fears are stemming from your anxiety, which may or may not be a rational fear, you want to challenge that a little from time to time in order to not let your anxiety overcome you.
It's your choice sweetie!! You decide which forums you want to visit, which threads you want to read, and what you have the energy to give. There's nothing that says that you have to read and participate in all the forums. Maybe for a while, take a step back...pick a forum you want to hang in and just stay there. Then, as you become more comfortable, you can slowly start to work in others...at your pace.
I've missed seeing you around here, so I hope you still stop by when you're feeling up to it. But Perna has a great point about changing your settings on your profile to help make things not as overwhelming. 
Take care..
