Well, I try to stay away from people! Just kidding, but that's what I like to do!
I see a counselor, try to eat healthy and get enough rest, take a stress multi-vitamin, fish oil, avoid caffeine or excessive alcohol, and am currently trying Zoloft. Also, try to get daily exercise, especially walks outdoors, and practice deep breathing.

I have been reading everything for starters that I can get my hands on about social anxiety and self help. I currently am trying something called tapping, I can't say I've had huge bounds of success with it but it is making a difference. Things I would like to try are yoga, meditating, and am currently seeking a therapist, haven't hit the meds yet but that might be next step in the future
