I understand, because I have pretty bad anxiety too!.
I don't suggest drugs like xanax or valium!. I know they help some people, but of the many people I know who have used them for any length of time, they have all had pretty negative experiences with addiction and with problems with being on it (impulsiveness, agressiveness, loss of memory, loss of emotion, being unkind to others)!.
Also, as much as people who tell you: Don't be scared! Don't feel self-concious!.!.!.you're so pretty, you're funny, you're nice, etc!. etc!. etc!. are trying to help!.!.!.I understand why this is not helpful to you either!. Anxiety is usually phobic!.!.!.Meaning there is no rhyme nor reason!.!.!.Its just there whether you like it or not!. So try to kindly except their advice, and move on!.
I would try going to a psychiatrist!. There are lots and lots of medications that help, and there are lots of therapies a professional can use to help you!. If none of these help after a long time, try getting tested for ADD!. I know it sounds wierd, but that's what was going on with me!. I guess ADD manifests as wierd social phobias in lots of adults!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have the same problem!. I freak out when we go into a new place like restaraunt or stores!. I worry everyone is looking at me!. trust me it gets better but you have to become more confident with yourself!. Just remember your with your boyfriend and some of them might just be with thier parents or just friends!. Your the lucky one!.

Relax!! Why care about what other people think about you! Just be WHO YOU ARE!. Its not hard to do it, go into that theater confident and with a bright smile on your face!. If it helps!. Keep a conversation with your bf and just focus on that!. Keep looking at him or something!. don't focus on all the other people around you!. bring a stress ball or something!. Do something relaxing before!. hope i helped!!
