Well, technically speaking, I have a trace of it remaining. I've been chipping away at it over the last couple of years. I used to freeze, literally freeze, when I came in contact with certain social situations. It's mainly a matter of putting yourself in "harms way" to get practise in handling these types of situations. I don't think therapy can help unless you enjoy talking about it. You just need to keep practising so that you train to be able to navigate those social anxiety moments.
