Hi, welcome to 7 Cups. I'm so sorry that that happened. 💜 It sounds like you were just being your usual self, which involves not looking people in the eye very much, and the teacher decided to draw attention to that and put you on the spot. (And I'd imagine that them doing that didn't help you feel any more comfortable or less anxious.)

From looking at your profile, it looks like you've already had some 1-on-1 chats with listeners. Just in case it's helpful, HERE is a list of experienced listeners who accept 1-on-1 chats on social anxiety.
