Is there a way to get over social anxiety?

My social anxiety stems from my teenage years when I had stage 5 acne(affecting roughly 1 in 10,000 during their adolencense) nodular cystic acne over 80% of my face. I'm clear now, but I have never got rid of the anxiety I feel around people.

I'm in a band, and while I've played many shows, I still get so nervous I almost puke when I go out in play. The only thing I have found that helps is having some alcohol before the show, but not enough to affect my coordination.

Any medications or anything availiable for this?
"but I have never got rid of the anxiety I feel around people."

No, I have never relearned how to function around people. I shake often when people are staring at me doing an action, and experience the same feelings in public, although I'm usually not under the affects of alcohol.

That was in my teenage years I had acne, it was because of a liver disfunction, it was beyond severe acne, not even accutane would work, I am one of, if not the only one, alive to have experienced the sererity of acne for the length of time I did. This is a few years down the road.
For having a unrecognizable face for three years and meth addicted abusive parents I'd say just me being here today say something about my problem solving methods.

I don't know of anyone who has had to battle through the problems I've had to battle through.
