I don't know how to properly word anything that I ever say so lets hope this comes out right.
I don't like getting personal at all on the internet, but for the sake of my question and this thread, I'll put my guards down temporarily (and if there are others that may have this question, but are too anxious, or don't know how to ask: I hope this helps you)
Okay, so I graduated high school a while ago. Struggled with social anxiety most of my life, and my grades and well-being have suffered because of it. Anyway, I've been working hard to not let my anxiety overcome me, but I go to college in the fall, and I'm a dancer but haven't been to dance classes since last June. (this is getting so personal smh). With the realization that I'm going to be going back to school soon I've been getting really anxious about meeting people, trying to make friends, tests, teachers, presentations, asking questions, and asking for help. I've become so good at avoiding social conflict and social situations basically my whole life that the fact that college-time is near is really scary. (I mean, I know I'll be okay, I pray everyday. I'm just suddenly really anxious right now) Also I really love to dance, but I know that if I go back, I'll have to befriend people there. I know that everyone there loves to dance, too, but one of the things about having social anxiety is that making friends or talking about myself, let alone just talking to other people, isn't exactly my forté.
So I have all these situations in my head that I constantly think about, and I was wondering if anyone used LDing for personal situations like these? I think I read somewhere on here about someone using their lucidity to prepare for a presentation? I'm just really curious if there are a lot of people out there that may have used their lucidity to make a situation--that SEEMS like there'd be a lot of anxiety--into a less anxiety-filled situation.
For example, there's this person who I want to be friends with, and I know a lot about them (when you're the quiet one, you're also very observant ((this isn't weird at all lol)) but the thing that keeps me from befriending them is my crippling anxiety to approach them. I'm still getting the hang of LDing but that's besides the point (I'm really close, though!)
I hope that this super-extremely-personal post didn't weird anyone out. Feedback would be appreciated.

tl;dr
Clearly I have issues but I need some feedback on dealing with real-life situations when I'm LDing.
