Any personality disorder is hard to deal with, and impossible to "cure". I dont think anyone of us like to admit it, but the only thing that will help us deal with this **** in life is to face all the situations we dont like and feel uncomfortable with. Dont like going to a party/meeting etc.? Well thats what you should do so you sort of get used to it. Personally I have given up on becoming any better so I just deal with it and avoid all social situations I can avoid.
