Social anxiety. What to do. please help!

Self-confidence: We feel shy or anxious when we are very cautious of the surroundings. But the key here is being confident in yourselves. So, how will you feel self confident? When you work on yourself. And by working on you I mean exercising, reading books, doing what you are already good at will make you feel better and more confident than before. Small talks: Small talks can be done with anyone who you meet or see. Start by giving smile to any random stranger you come across, ofcourse not with a creepy face. Then indulge in small talks with them. Try to know about them by speaking little about yourself. Meet new people: Try to communicate with new people everyday. At first maybe you'll suck at communicating with strangers, but if you do it everyday you'll become more confident at this. Best part about meeting new people is that they dont have a particular image of us in their minds and they dont try to judge you. This way by meeting new people you can practice your communcation skills. Motivation: Try to find a source of motivation for yourself. You can watch TEd talks, read books. Start by doing these things and eventually you'll find yourself more confident and less introverted.
