Katie asked:

I feel like my problem is not that I have a hard time being vulnerable, but rather I am often far too open with people, and then the regret/anxiety/over-analyzing sets in after; it's like retrograde social anxiety! Would this book still be a helpful read for me?

Vickie Yes! She has a whole section on oversharing: floodlighting vs. smash & grab. She also makes a good argument about sharing vulnerability with people who have earned it.
Jo I think she talks about oversharing as a form of armor, but I'm not sure if that's quite the same thing as what you're saying. Not sure if you decided to read the book since you asked this question ages ago but yes, I think you might find value in it.
