you might have social anxiety. i have suffered from it for years. you might need counseling and maybe medication as a last resort if it gets out of control. i have been held back a lot in life because i have suffered the same thing. i don't understand why it happens to me but it is extremely embarrassing and frustrating. just do a little research on social anxiety. i hope you get better.
