    17 or 18. I was cripplingly shy as a child and when I was 16 I lost a lot of weight and suddenly people NOTICED me. It took about a year for me to stop hiding and get on with it.

    This is an interesting question. In high school I had way more confidence than I should have, but I would say true mojo came about maybe my sophomore year in college.

    I became super cocky and confident last year at 17 probably because i lost my virginiaty so i was more confident but i also became more aware of my body so i will have days where im cocky as (i think i get it fromy my dad haha) but i will also have days where im really wprried about my weight. Its really weird haha

    40...definitely 40, but near the end, going onto 41. Never been overly confident until I was able to see results of my concerted effort to regain control of my life and health.

    im still super shy 90% of the time (unless im at work i work in a resturant and have to be outgoing) and about 2 or 3 years ago i started feeling more confident about myself, still get those flashes of crippling self critisism but eh they arnt as bad or as big as they use to be

    I'll probably get mine later today. I'm 37. It seems like it should have come by now.

    It is developing now. I think by the end of sophomore year, I'll finally have it!

    I joined the Royal Marines at 16 so had to be confident and independent.

    I started to get it at 18, after being in University for a while I met some new people and my boyfriend and everything just felt right and I realized somewhere along the line that Im pretty ok :happy: .

    I loved that you shared this. I'm 30 and still working on getting out of my head & becoming available. Thanks for the honesty.

    I always envisioned myself as a shy, sweet child but friends and family have given me cause to believe that I was a bit more fiesty. I think that you can develop confidence in general and in any specific area by experience. I thought that I was a pretty confident person until I started Tae Kwon Do about 2 years ago. Trying to learn TKD and learn to do it well will really humble you... especially at my age. LOL
