I used the exact same imagery thinking about myself the other day.
While I'm certain it's completely accurate in my case ;), are you sure it's completely accurate in yours? Most people I know, particularly anxious people, have a public persona that's different from their private one. My father used to get really hearty and, to me, fake. But when I'd hear other people talk about him, they had no idea that wasn't the real him and they liked him just fine.
Is there someone you trust who has seen you in public that you can talk about this with? You might be surprised to learn that even though Abe seems like such a quiet guy, he can be a lot of fun when he's with others.
