I say...up the Klonopin, get into some sort of CBT therapy or similar program. EMSAM might help, but benzos have a better track record (and they're cheaper...)
social phobia may be due in part of dopamine dysfunction, so adding in Provigil or an MAOI or, if your doc will import meds and supervise you, a reversible MAOI like Manerix, might be the thing to do. Apparently, some people with SP who are stable find adding in low doses of wellbutrin or ritalin can be helpful.
Good luck.
