I have had social anxiety and I am looking to completely conquer it. I have made alot of progress the last 10 years... but it has taken 10 years.

I am now trying to take a new approach. Instead of focusing on things that reduce anxiety, I am trying to focus on social activities that increasing socializing and provide a relaxing environment. I am also looking for books about taking a more pro-active and positive approach to defeating this anxious condition.

I want to stop concentrating on the symptoms and start concentrating on the preferred behaviors. Does anybody have any idea, any books, activities, or information I can use to help myself and others overcome social anxiety?
