How do I deal with Communication Skills classes when I struggle with mental illness and severe social anxiety?

Hi guys, I'm an ECE fresher and I'm facing a lot of issues adjusting. While I do struggle with social anxiety and mental health issues, a big part of it is also just who I am—I belong to the category of people who simply do not like to socialize. Interacting with 3-4 people is my absolute limit. If even one more person is added, I withdraw and sit in a corner.

I don't talk to anyone in my class, I don't know their names, and I honestly have no interest in getting to know them. I like staying away from everything. I've watched everyone slowly form bonds, and I'm happy for them in my own zone, but I feel like if I try to be with them, I'll just be cringe and ruin their fun.

I genuinely love my other classes like Maths, Physics, Applied Chemistry, and CS. But our Communication Skills class is the worst class I have ever taken. We have a two-hour session every Thursday morning, and it literally leaves me feeling depressed. The class feels designed only for naturally confident extroverts and people with an extreme level of socializing skills. Everyone in my class seems to have that god-tier confidence except me.

Because of some very bad things that happened in my past, I started strictly limiting my private life and interactions. But the teacher is constantly forcing extroverted activities every 30 minutes, and I am just not built for it. During a recent interaction where the cultural club came to play games with us freshers, I had a complete meltdown—I was shivering, sweating, and froze just being asked my name. I spent the rest of the class sitting there in deep embarrassment. I couldn't lift my head up the whole time because I just didn't want to be seen by anyone.

This week, the teacher held a debate where a student had to come up in front of everyone and debate a specific topic directly against the person standing in front of them. I had to bunk that class. Now, next week, we have a role-play activity. I can barely stand in front of 5 people, and she is expecting me to do a role-play with everyone. It's worth 25 marks and will be included in our 1st IA. If I am forced to do this, it is definitely going to kill my leftover confidence, destroy me from the inside, and haunt me for the rest of my life. I won't even be able to face my other classes.

The biggest problem is attendance. The college has a strict 85% attendance rule. I have 100% attendance in every other subject, but in this class, I am at 84% because I've already bunked three out of ten classes to avoid these situations.

People who are naturally confident, good-looking, and have great socializing skills are never going to understand my problem. Has anyone dealt with something like this? What should I do about this role-play and my attendance? Any help would be appreciated.

TL;DR: I'm an ECE fresher who struggles with social anxiety and prefers not to socialize. Our Communication Skills teacher keeps conducting activities like debates and role-plays, which make me extremely anxious. The upcoming role-play is worth 25 marks for our first IA, and I'm scared of how it will affect me. I have 100% attendance in every other subject, but I've already missed three Communication Skills classes. How can I handle the role-play, talk to my teacher, and avoid attendance problems?
