Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have social phobia. In that case, you should take antidepressant like paroxetine after psychiatrist consultation. You also need exposure therapy. That would help to decrease anxiety symptoms while facing people. You can try few relaxation exercise like JPMR or deep breathing exercise that would keep you calm and relax.

Thanks
