Question: Shyness-- is there a way to fight it.?
How do I gain more confidence to speak up!Health Question & Answer
Answers:
Shyness can be a form of social anxiety. People with social anxiety usually fear of being negatively evaluated by friends and family i.e put down, made fun of, being laughed at etc. Ask yourself why you are shy and if it's because of one of those examples i gave you, you may have social anxiety. You just need to see that you are unique person and you do have something to contribute to conversations. Easier said than done i know but just keep working on it. If gets to be a real problem for you see a psychologist to help you bring out your insecurities and confront them. Take careHealth Question & Answer

I was shy for a lot of my life and then I asked myself What am I afraid of and What do I have to lose if I speak up and socialize.. Once you rationalize this and realize that you are missing out on more than you are protecting yourself from by being shy then things will open up.. by continually putting yourself into social situations instead of avoiding things you will eventually become more comfortable... hope this helps good luckHealth Question & Answer
I used to have the same problem. In 7th grade I grew out of this though. I was determined to stop being afraid to talk, I was tired of being quiet. All you have to do is just involve yourself. In class, answer questions, make new friends, talk to other people, make positive relationships with people, and most of all be confident in yourself. Once you start being social you will feel so much better. You will no longer be afraid to talk to people. Of course you will still feel a little apprehension at first but just keep being social. Now I take a speech class and make memorized speeches in front of a class without worry. I hope everything works out for you!Health Question & Answer
Shyness is actually mild social anxiety
The main forms of treatment are
a) Gradual-inrtoduction therapy, where you gradually do things you are uncomfortable with in a controlled situation until you can do it for real
b) Anti-depressants. This is usually for when therapy failsHealth Question & Answer

Sorry there's no pill, but what helped me was not caring anymore what people think or say about me. People are either going to like you or not, and why would you want to be friends or whatever with someone who doesn't respect your thoughts and opinions. It is really hard to put your self out on that line but if I can anybody can.......good luck!Health Question & Answer
It's tough. I'm still fighting the battle. You just have to learn to push yourself out of your comfort zone. The first time I did it felt weird and strange, almost like I shouldn't be talking. Don't think too much about what to say because you'll most likely talk yourself out of it. After a little while it gets easier and more comfortable to speak up.Health Question & Answer
