Personally i think you have OCD and social anxiety disorder. I think you would benefit from medication,i.e. an antidepressant..probably start out w/an ssri like Paxil, and then possibly an snri, tca, and last but not least an MAOI. If your anxiety is very high i think adding a benzodiazapine like Klonopin would be of help. I would highly recommend counseling along with the medication.Of course this is only my personal opinion, and i am not a Doctor. The first thing i would recommend is a Board Certified Psychiatrist.
Good Luck.
