I have a few suggestions if you're willing to listen?

[sora_bezhad]

I'm always willing to listen, so...yes!

This is a social anxiety, correct?

Social anxiety to the max.

A trick that's helped Alex (and mind you, this was also part of the process of transitioning for him), was to stop being the person they disliked in public, but rather presenting themselves as the person they wanted to be. He started presenting himself as male in public, both in appearance, attitude, mannerisms, and other behavioral things. It helped him cope with social anxiety a lot more.

In your case it wouldn't be gender, but you can at least present yourself as the person you want to see yourself as. It may help.
