I understand how you feel because I get the same way. As the date approaches, I get more and more anxious and my mind floods with dread, excuses and what-ifs and I am convinced that it's going to be bad. It NEVER turns out to be that bad, often it's actually really good! If you keep giving in and not getting out and doing things your anxiety and shyness will get worse and it will become hard to do even simpler things like normal everyday life stuff. It's also important to keep your word. Your people seem to care about you and want you around but if you don't engage with them and you flake out, that won't last.
I was exactly like that, and I have joined in with lots of stuff and beaten my shyness so much! But even when I said yes I meant no, not because I'm anxious but because I don't want to go :/.
I said yes to something and now I don't want to do it.
