that's good! getting professional help is definitely what you should do! also you should try to change your routine. try to go out more, even if it is just going for a walk. you probably don't get enough sunlight either, that can really mess up your sleep-wake cycle. the same with food. you can make a project out of cooking really nice and healthier food. it gives you something to do and helps your body. it would be best if that meal isn't in the middle of the night, but if that's all that works for now, do it anyway.
try to find out what you like again, like gym or art or music, and try to find people with similar interests. it's really really hard, especially if you feel so anxious around people, but the best way of getting better is fighting it in an environment you can tolerate, for example the gym if you like working out. you wouldn't even have to talk to people there, just being around people. and there are so many different people there that you won't have to feel weird or afraid that you look different or anything.
you can do it!!!
