Extreme anxiety of talking about myself - need help

...See more i am in my late 20s and I am extremely shy and have a lot of social anxiety. I am scared to tell my coworkers that my brother lives in the US for fear they will google him. He did a phd in his field and he would be easily searchable. Scared they will judge me and say he is rich for example because of where he works. I am als scared of them finding it weird of why i have not shared this with them before. Does anyone have any help? How can i stop worrying so much what people think of me? I am seeing a therapist and i am planning to go to the doctor to get medication. Its really draining living like this. Any advice?

Extreme anxiety of talking about my family - need help

...See more I am in my late 20s and I need urgent help. I have alwaya been really shy and have always had a lot of social anxiety. I am extremely afraid of being judged by other people. My brother is a phD and is becoming an expert in his field. He has written a lot of papers in important journals in his field. I am embarrassed of talking about him to people as I am scared they will google him. I am scared they will judge my brother or.myself and say "wow he must.be so rich" or something along those lines or that I must be really wealthy. Instead of being happy for my brother I feel really anxious of people finding out about him. Can anyone give me any advice? I am going to therapy but I am thinking of switching therapists as I have not made much progress with my current one.
