SSRIs and buspirone?
lol. I was thinking he/she shoudl get on long term benzo's myself. Maybe throw in an old TCA just to cover all the bases. I hear that both are good for you.
Hey, why not give him a MAOI and some cheese, while you're at it? You guys are horrible
I don't really think meds are the answer, especially for such situational types of anxiety. Systemic de-sensitization is the way to go...

Should add in some propanolol as well.

I've known a few people who have had similar problems in their lives, and in general it seems to be something you grow out of, maybe it's just a stage in your life.
Perhaps try getting to the point where you're like "f*@# it, I just don't care what anyone thinks anymore."
But I don't know maybe meds are the answer. See a psychiatrist?
I'd be careful with these kind of statements. Anxiety problems are not solved by telling people they'll "grow out of it" or to "stop caring what other people think." Try using a bit more empathy.

Re-introduce yourself to everyone.
