how to stop being shy 😔

[maca]

I know it's so hard to understand this if you're not shy but I'm just so tired of doing NOTHING because I'm super awkward and shy
I can't talk to boys, I can't take classes, I can't talk with people in general and that makes me so sad
I just wish I was someone else sometimes 😭

(if something it's wrong I'm sorry, english it's not my first language)

I relate to this but I don't use the word shy it's just my anxiety

Fw real bad because I have severe social anxiety!!! I wish I knew what to tell you to help you not feel so shy but I just don't know. Baby steps is all I can say. I find myself feeling slightly more comfortable in any spaces when I'm with my friends or people I'm comfortable with. Maybe you can try that too or join an activity you have an interest or passion for, it might help ease your shyness.

you’re so real for this. all i can say is jus put urself out there in small ways and it’ll get more comfortable

I am a very extrovert person, I like to talk to people and listen to them. Don't be sad, you can do it!

My advice to you, beautiful, is to take the initiative.

Take a deep breath, try to talk to yourself in front of the mirror, record yourself talking, if you have someone you trust then get them to talk to you. Start small, as far as you feel comfortable, don't be afraid to feel judged by others because, at the end of the day, you're never going to please people no matter what you do, so live your life and don't let others live it for you, and don't be afraid to walk away if a conversation makes you uncomfortable.

Finally, trust in yourself and how amazing you are!

I used to be really shy but I kinda just started “faking till I make it” with my confidence and it really helped

same girly!! when I moved to a new school i didn't talk to anyone for a long time but the people there were really nice and slowly i started talking to everyone. i became really good friends with a lot of people but it took almost a year to find friends with the same interests now I have three best friends and a lot of other friends. the trick is to talk to everyone even though you really don't feel like it just like Sofia said fake it till you make it and eventually you will grow out of it i used to be a really shy person a few years ago but now I'm an extrovert but don't change for anyone change for yourself if that make sense
