I really feel like I can relate to you. My mom is similar and I have the same worries that I'll become like her. The best thing I did (other than therapy) was make friends with a very laid back easy going person. I actually specifically sought out someone like that. It was weird at first for me to be in an environment where things were so easy and no one was critical or overly sensitive. She didn't care if I acted tense and nervous at first just hanging out. Eventually I learned how to relax and be myself, but it took probably about 5 years of hanging out with her and the friends I made through her. But now I can relax around other people too. Its kind of like reprogramming yourself. I've found who you surround yourself with can really make a big difference in your life. I hope this helps. Good luck!
