Generally, it just calms you down. I had to take it for extreme test anxiety once and it worked pretty well. It got rid of the jitters. It just soothes your nerves, so I would say it would be moderately successful with social phobias, as long as they're not too severe.
I thought it was for sleep - didn't work for me but that was the purpose!
Usually social phobia would be treated by counseling and therapy. It is not a physical thing. Phobias are generally caused either difficult experiences in the past, or by learning. Truth therapy would be the answer, after understanding where the phobia comes from.
There is no easy physical, biological, natural or chemical solution to phobias.
