Are you getting any sort of counselling or therapy for it? Most colleges and universities offer counselling to students. It can be a little hit and miss finding someone you relate to, which is important for most therapy. But it is available at no extra cost, which is not something to ignore. Once you graduate, such help is expensive and/or has long waiting lists. So I'd advise you to give it a try, if you haven't already done so.
And you can always discuss things here. We certainly relate. Best wishes and take care.

No. I used to go to a therapist when i was a young teen but i ended up stopping that because it made me to upset to talk to someone in person like that, especially a stranger who i don't know well enough to judge how they would react. I might ask for some help later (emphasis on might) as i am not yet familiar enough with my college and the people themselves still make me wary. Are there online therapists or something? My anxiety is really based on physical interaction and stuff like phone calls and video messaging.
