You should talk to your friends more about what you feel and see what they say. Try and find little things that can help build up your courage. Like try meeting at least one new friend or getting back with some of your old friends.
You maybe really should talk to a psychologist/therapist and figure out what has made you this way.
Actually even though I used to have friends in school, I didn't make them friends myself, They started talking to me themselves and hence I became their friend.. I don't recall making a friend myself.. and I used to go out and have fun with friends in school but I would still hide behind my friends and never take any responsibility and always just try to avoid and push my friends ahead of me..
All of my friends tell me that I'm too shy and well I'm in college right now and I might be going to UK for higher studies but my friends told me that I can't go and live alone in a different country because I can't even talk properly to people. That annoys me because I really want to go abroad on my own.
Another problem that I have is that I also start shaking when I'm nervous. Its makes it all even more embarrassing..
