Feel Nervous To Be With People. Can't Express Myself. When Drunk Can Do It With Ease. Recommendations?

i feel really nervous around people to the point i cant even talk to my family without being awkward and quiet. I feel when people look at me and try to talk i cant think of anything to say. when im texting i can talk nonstop but when i meet someone in person i get quiet and awkward and feel like there is something seriously wrong with me. I have no friends and when i feel i start to make friends i began to push them away. When im drunk i can socialize remarkably and have no nervousness and feel comfortable with anything i say and once the alcohol wears off i become silent and nervous again.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

This problem is due to lack of training, negative thinking and lack of self confidence. Put it straight. You are not at all in trouble. it is just apprehension.Face it.

Apprehension is a trouble only upto your realization about it.then it disappears. You speak once or twice to a strange person and the anxiety disappears.

Anyway, consult a counselor for further advice.
