Basically I'm embarrassed to be living. I know it's an awful thing to say but that's how I feel and how I have always felt.
Sounds like social anxiety to me. Im no expert but as someone who has it a lot of what youre saying makes sense to me. So youre not the only one.

First, its not an awful thing to say. Its how you feel and we're all entitled to our own feelings.

Part of my social anxiety in part revolves around my perfectionist tendencies. If I dont do it perfectly sometimes it feels like it doesnt count

Are you embarrassed that people know you or are you uncomfortable being around people? The two could be easily confused. I get embarrased being around people because i worry what theyre thinking, what i look like, etc.
