Suggest Treatment For Social Anxiety

Hello I have a question. I am a 19 year old male and my whole life I have dealt with social anxiety. Its made me unable to do things throughout my life and I feel like there is know point of living for me anymore. So many things have past me by because I would be to afraid to talk. It gets to the point where I am frozen in terror. I tried everything that people have told me to do and it has never helped. Today I had to present in front of class and I believed i had my first anxiety attack. my mind was think so rapidly and negatively that my body could not operate in front of my class. today I found out that my condition is social anxiety and that i can be prescribed things to help me. i read about beta breakers on social anxiety and I wanted to hear from a doctor all the positive and negative side effects found. Please respond
