Does anyone have any experience dealing with social anxiety/social phobia? Programs? Products? Therapists? I live in San Francisco.

Thanks so much!

I have social anxiety/social phobia.I only get about 15 minuted to discuss things with my doctor. He gave me clonipin for anxiety.It does help, but I still have panic attacks. Especially around large groups of people.I walk outside to get away from them. I always feel like people are staring at me, so the only thing to do is get myself away from large groups.
I'm sure they are talking about me, but I don't care.

Wow, in San Francisco, and the bay area, you have a large population of therapists.
Have you tried psychodynamic psychotherapy?
