Social anxiety is one of the few anxiety disorders (maybe only) that has definite implication of dopamine dysfunction. Theres a fair bit of info supporting this. I have social anxiety and I find it hard to be motivated or to get anything done at all. Im not taking anything right now, but for me both ritalin and dexadrine were complete 100% cures for all my symptoms, but there effects always diminish and then disapear after a day or two. Four years of searching and havent found anything very useful. But of course others have, and most will say klonopin is the king (maybe nardil too). So if you dont have problems focusing and getting motivated on other things, I would say try klonopin, probably best dose is 2mgs. CBT could help too, but I havent tried it myself (not available.) but maybe its your disapointment in social situations that causes your lack of motivation. Hope this helps, TOm
