overcome it?

I’m an 18 y/o female and I’ve been social phobic for almost my whole life, but of course it started surfacing more as I got older, maybe around 9th grade and continued to get worse, although I did not lessen my exposure to people/public speaking.

I guess I’m just looking into what treatment is best. I tried SSRI’s (prozac and then I tried celexa, but somewhat low doses) and they provided very minimal relief. I’m currently on nothing now. I was getting therapy for general anxiety/stress but haven’t for blushing/social phobia specifically. Should I try that before I try another medication? Any natural remedies?

Any help/inspirational stories would be great….SAD is ruining my life and stopping me from doing things I want to do :[
