I'm with buck. I was super shy until about 17 and realized I'd never get anywhere in life being like this! I stepped out of my shell, and haven't shut up since! ha

I use to be shy but if you have confidence or just fake it like what the people above said , you'll soon start loosing the shyness. You'll be fine0

If you're tongue-tied or short of breath don't even try. But if you want to Try a little harder then Something's wrong.
I'm not naive, but you must must be strong because modern medicine falls short of your complaint, so try a little harder or else you'll just be
moving in circles because you're too shy. If you see a girl just say "Hey girl, move a little closer!". But really you're too shy-shy, hush hush, eye to eye... too shy too shy, hush hush...
eye to eye!

I can not score high on promotional tests at work that require oral participation because I start to get tongue tied. I have a 1000 things in my head all at once and all the comes out is some stupid *kitten*. Complete mind midgets score higher than me and make rank when I know more about my job than most of the department. Surely there is therapy for what I'm experiencing.
This sucks I think you should seek some help and see where it goes. It's such a pity to not show your full potential. I really wish you the best.0 -
Noooo! Life is way too short to be shy. I want to know everyone. I want to gain experiences. Not to say being a loudmouth is ok -- cos that's just as bad. Enjoy yourself0

Never was shy... always a clown0

Not shy...Just introverted due to past experiences. Like with work, I've taught lessons and such so I'm not afraid to speak to people or anything. I just choose to stay alone and spend my time reading except when my wife is home. My wife and family is more than enough for me when it comes to person-to-person contact haha0

What was "just me being shy" when I was a child is now pretty bad social anxiety. But Xanax is awesome0
