Sometimes when a situation comes up, you could mention to the other person, "Oh no I get nervous very easily and don't feel like doing it. I have a bit of anxiety actually". I don't know anyone who has openly told me they had social anxiety unless the context was right.
For example, going to a social anxiety workshop at my school. Also when people share personal things about themselves, some of them have mentioned they have anxiety issues and people were very accepting of that and treated them the same way.
Just whenever the context of the conversation feels right, that's when you should mention it... or if you feel like bringing up the topic yourself, you can try to. A lot of people may not understand SA fully though.
