Greetings fellow socialphobs. :wink:
Just want to introduce myself to the group, I am 24 years old and have been very shy and quiet my whole life & Ive pretty much had enough of it & want to seek out some help & tips. I am shy in basically every situation, exept for when Ive had a couple drinks, but I know this is only an evil crutch which will never really solve my problem, so I want to face it head on. I am shy when I am one on one with someone I know, or a stranger, my my train of thought stops, I get nervous & cannot make small talk, if the person I am talking to is friendly & out going, if they are initiating the converstion, I can keep it rolling, however if the person is not a big talker, I have a huge problem making conversation. I am also very nervous in large groups & public speaking is hardly an option becuause I get so nervous I shake & can hardly speak. I am known as the quiet guy in my family, the shy guy at work & the nice quiet shy guy in my small group of friends. Like I said, its getting frustrating & I want to fix this problem, I hope this site is a helping hand.
