Am i the only one with social anxiety

i get u. same here kinda. i feel so bad when others talk because my brain goes totally blind and idk what to say because i think about nothing. drinking a bit kinda helps me cuz i get calmer and i say some things and i even sound appropriate lol. so btw, i feel like the main difficulty is getting into a group where other people already know each other and it's hard to make ur personality shine, especially if u re an introvert like me. the other thing is not sounding weird, but i guess it's k to say stupid shit if then u know these people more and u actually become friends, because at that point u know each other better. the real advice here is to go ahead and get out of comfort zone and risk and watch those people more and more, at some point it kinda becomes a need to take part in the convos and that will help getting more comfortable
