    r we born shy?

    I just didn't seem to be able to connect social anxiety with the things you mentioned but now can see a connection b/t one that you mentioned, child abuse, people who have experienced child abuse can have problems in social situations bc they might feel unable to open up and it's possible to...

    r we born shy?

    Hm, I'm not sure what you mean by larger factors but I definitely think there are other factors interconnected with social anxiety. For example, bullying, and being brought up under weak foundations so when the circumstances like bullying hit on the spot that's weak, u just fall down -- these...

    Finally I've asked for help

    Great for you! For me, it seems counselling doesn't help me. They just want to hear what they think, not what I'm saying. Or they expect you to do all the talking, that seems to be how it goes. I like advice on the way. it offers insight into what you could do or how things can change. I'm going...

I don't usually post a lot on here but it's bc I hadn't got to my walks, etc. I hadn't because I had appointments and I'm tired of them bc I get tired bc of my medication. I wasn't on time once. I also have bible studies I reserved in place of...

    r we born shy?

    aw Hoth, I'm so sorry to hear you were so shy but it's ok to be. I don't know if animals are socially anxious but they can be untrusting and afraid which is relevant as some people can be untrustworthy

    r we born shy?

    I thought shyness is shy with any possible thing that comes your way. For example, if you're not very confident with your appearance then it won't affect you being shy. I'm b/t anxious to regular so shy is in there in the middle range too. I've inherited the shy prone-to-anxiety introvert. I...

    r we born shy?

    Thanks for your opinions. You say diet makes it much more tolerable but what I was talking about is "diet for the 'developing' brain". but even then, if you have strong genetics for shyness then I think you will still be a little shy or something.

    Acting

    do you think we all do a bit of acting, not only the socially anxious/phobic? And why do we do acting? To cope with something right?
