How to make a living with social anxiety disorder?

I've been diagnosed as agoraphobic and have had very similar experiences to those that you've described. I've been seeing psychologists/ psychiatrists etc since I was 11 (I'm now 19) and they have all been a frustrating waste of time except recently I've been seeing a lady who works for the Early Intervention Service, she has really helped me. I really recommend this service, I go to Canada House in Gillingham for this. (I don't want to mention her name on the internet).
