Hi, that's understandable. Can you look up online where your local meeting is?.....perhaps get a local contact number and call them and explain how nervous you are and why.

If not, turn up at the meeting early, perhaps 30 minutes before the start, and find a little bit of courage to tell the first person you see that you have social phobia and anxiety but you are an addict and need help. They will do the rest and help you.

Even newcomers without your issues are very nervous and we understand that and help make them feel comfortable.

Please do this and get some help. If you don't it is going to be very difficult to stay off the drugs.

Keep in touch.
