Yup that makes three of us, I'm sure there's more people in this subreddit like this.
I know I have lost friends and relationships over this thing, so here's the conclusions that I have reached, please correct me if I'm wrong because I also need the feedback:
Better to be with people that know you are an introvert and know that you are trying your best, than with people that only like you because they think you're an extrovert and as years go by, come to realize that you are not.
THAT being said, I wouldn't begin courting someone by stating that I'm an introvert, I might as well say that I'm shy weirdo, not very sexy (of course, this may change in the future).
(I brought enough grammatical errors for everyone, please don't get excited about pointing them out, English is my second language and I'm at work so I can't proofread what I just wrote)
I read ShyBusters yesterday.
Her recommendation was that voice training wouldn't help nearly as much as acting lessons (which involve voice projection, experimenting with different roles in front of an audience, etc). I'm looking into it.
A few books I found really helpful:
Hi there! Overcoming chronic shyness is a fairly big issue and tough to cover in detail in the comments. In answer to your question, I have helped shy bartenders overcome chronic shyness -- and the most fundamental ingredient is in the desire to overcome it, which it sounds like you have. May I recommend an excellent book on this subject by a very smart and levelheaded lady named Leil Londes. Her book is called Goodbye to Shy, and she really does give sound practical advice that works:

But I've also recently written a book that touches a good deal on this stuff:
