Stuck in your social anxiety

Does anybody else feel that, even if your anxiety disappeared tomorrow, you'd still be stuck in the same situation?

I think that, even if i suddenly became an anxiety-free, fairly confident guy, I would still find it extremely difficult to change my life now. I have days when I feel fine but its as if the damage is already done. I think any "normal" person would find it hard to break out of having no friends or social life and when everyone knows you as being really quiet you end up being stuck that way. I also feel ashamed to get to know people because they will find out I have no friends sooner or later...

Haha, this wasn't meant to sound so depressing and self-pitying but it was just something I've been thinking about.

The trouble is, the confident guy would never have got himself into this situation in the first place :p. So its hard to say what he would do once he's in it. If that makes any sense....

even if i improve i'm already known as the quiet one so how could i randomly start talking?
its like i want it to get better, then move away.
