That's funny (odd funny) I have the same thing and I'm ADD, it runs in our family too - brother w/extreme social anxiety, sister with ADD, kids with ADD. We all have anxiety, all lack confidence. Maybe that's something to consider Med.
As far as a therapist, mine is great. I told him I feared some terrible diagnosis, and he put my fears to rest. Must be they hear a fair amount of that. Just look until you find one who you trust and can work with.
I agree that you sure don't sound psychotic. REally anxious but not psychotic.
Good luck,
