Hi, I'm stardreamer. I'm 19 years old, and am very, very shy at times. My shyness has been so bad, that I'm pretty sure it's social phobia. I've even been too shy to pick up the phone before, and have a lot of trouble making real friends.

I used to be a very outgoing person, but then I got to middle school, and my life got a little tuff. (long story) In my school days I had been teased, and had quite a few "friends" stab me in the back. And after awhile, something hit me, and I seemed to shy away from people.

Now I'm in college, and really want to get rid of this extreme shyness. I want to make real friends, and get on with my life. In the last year, it has been getting a lot better, as I have tried to push myself to talk to people. But I hope to one day fully get over the fear of people that I have. ::eek::

So here I am... :)

Hello, it's interesting how SA seems to usually hit in youth or teen years. I'm sorry that you were teased and backstabbed during those years :[. Good decision to join this site! Welcome

don't be ashamed for not picking up the phone. I literally get terrified when my phone rings. I only text.

It's natural to be afraid of people. You never know what they're up to.

Hope you enjoy the site!
