I don’t want to be crowded around strangers, feeling awkward and anxious, in a shitty big vehicle that is constantly jerking and rumbling and takes 4x as long to get where I need to go.

Bicycling would alleviate all of these ... except for the last one. (Now it takes 10x as long to get where you need to go. But it's not crowded, no social anxiety, no shitty big vehicle, less jerking and no rumbling...)

My 3 mile bike ride takes 2 minutes longer door to door than driving.

As has been repeated a few hundred times in this thread already, the part that makes it takes so long is car centric infrastructure. If you live in suburbia where you have a population density of 1k/mi2 (400/km2) you will have to travel a much more significant distance than if you live in a place that has 9k/mi2 (3500/km2)

Then with less car centric infrastructure the benefit of having parking right next to work starts to go away and the extra space can be used to shorten commutes as well
