Have any of you ever overcome shyness (17)
I only get shy when its important to me.I get tongue twisted when i like some one.Or if i have to speak on important matters in front of people. Other wise my very out going.
my biggest nightmare is having to stand up in front of people to speak - i hate it but have overcome it with practice.
ive never asked anybody out though but have no problem getting chatting and melting the ice that way

I always find it hard to ask someone out whether its on a night out or on CS.. 
When at a party ill just sit in the corner and watch people having fun. But if i konw someone there ill just talk to them.. After iv had a drink i can talk to people if they start the conversation but im to shy to make the first move
Dont think iv ever asked a woman out think they have asked me.. Thats why its been a loanly life and fell like hitting my head agains the wall sometimes
think i need some

I have gone through agonies with shyness myself and have no answers but maybe somebody has some solutions.at parties i used to find it much worse if i was dreading it for days ahead cos then it would just turn into a self fulfilling prophesy - I would have convinced myself by the time I got there that i would feel out of place and so thats what i did - what a catch 22
the flippin things we convince ourselves of eh 
but i guess its all part of human natureits crazy cos at other times Im really outgoing
i am a shy person, but what i usually do is pretend that i am not shy and after a while i don't need to pretend anymore
I used to be a very shy person, untill i started deejaying, i performed for thousends of people, and there i found i wasnt shy at all, i did whatever i wanted to do without any worry,..
Now when i get shy i just try to think how i felt back in belgium when i was a dj,..it helps

We do try to help you mike dont we?
aww sweetie if you want help you only have to ask well i know i shouldnt really admit it but i am really shy when it comes to things like that, it takes me a while to be able to pick up enough courage to ask somone out.
if i got invited to somewhere and i didnt know anyone i would have to think long and hard about going there cos i just would not feel comfortable in there.
i wasnt any good in school at speaking in front of class i used to just get so nervous i couldnt speak, i still get like that now

i got to admit im quiet shy.
Ive just been having a read of the happiness institutes website and found some really happy stuff
these are amongst them;
Doubt - thinking less than the best of yourself, others
Discouragement - wanting to throw in the towel before it is time
Envy - wondering why life has not given you as good a deal as someone else
Regret - dwelling on how things could have or should have been
Depression - feeling that life is closing in on you
Ingratitude - overlooking the many things you have to be
thankful for
its a good site - made me very happy and able to ignore lots of things which could upset me

I found that DJ'ing really helped me too - even though it was only on the net 
Nah, I've not yet overcome my shyness. I'm 46 now so doubt I will overcome it, guess I'll just have to carry on living with it If you can't beat a thing you may as well join it

How do you deal with asking somebody out, loads of people have trouble with that one.
What about being at a party where you dont know anybody
Theres loads of situations where it can affect us every day, giving a speech, standing up for yourself - anything - How've you beaten it?
