Suffering From Shyness?
Are You Suffering From The Daily Anxiety Of Being Shy?
Are you suffering from shyness? Or could it be something more? Some people who think they are just shy are really suffering from social anxiety. Social Anxiety is often misdiagnosed as simple shyness.
Are You Just Shy?
Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you worry for days, weeks, months about an event you have to attend?
- Do you immediately start coming up with excuses not to attend an event?
- Do you have an extreme fear of being judged by others?
- Do you have extreme fear of talking to strangers?
- Do you find it almost impossible to use the phone?
- Do you panic when someone knocks on your door?
- Do you avoid going to the store?
- Do you find it extremely hard to carry on any form of conversation online?
- Are you extremely afraid of looking, doing, or saying something “stupid” in social situations?
If you answered YES to any of these, you may be suffering from SOCIAL ANXIETY.
You will learn how to overcome your suffering from shyness, as well as overcoming your suffering from social anxiety.
No longer will you have to sit on the sidelines… missing out on life, hoping and praying to be different.
You will also find out why you must not wait and hope for things to change. You must take action now. Not taking action will result in increased fear and possibly bring on additional problems such as Panic Attacks, Depression, Agoraphobia, and more.

and much more…
How do I know this?
My name is Pam, and I have Social Anxiety. I can remember instances of panic when I was 4 years old. Obviously I didn’t know then what was wrong, and I didn’t find out until much, much later.
I have been to countless therapists, doctors, psychologists… I have read many books and I have spent hours every day doing research online.
My situation was so bad, I couldn’t even walk out to the mailbox and get my own mail. The worst thing is, I have missed out on numerous events with my children.
I know where you are at; I know how you feel; I know the pain, guilt, and embarrassment that comes with social anxiety.
I also know, if you choose to ignore this disorder, it will continue to get worse. My symptoms escalated to depression, panic attacks and agoraphobia. Until I chose to do something, and you can too!
Hi,
I’ve been told that hypnotherapy works and should give it a try, as I have SA. Do you know if this is correct. Would love to hear.
Thank you
TH.
Yes, TH, I have heard that hypnotherapy works for most people if used regularly. Good Luck!

It is my Dad who suffers from severe anxiety and this in turn has led to a deep depression. At first the whole family thought that he was just lazy and because he too has a drink problem thought he was just selfish and we wanted nothing to do with him. It is only now as i have got older i am beginning to understand the disease that my Dad has and i am comming to terms with it and trying to understand that it is not his fault why he is the way he is. In my Dad’s case it is a genetic thing. His mother and three of his brothers also suffer from the disease. My Dad was signed into a mental health clinic for weeks just lately and i have now realised how mentally sick he really is and that he needs the support of his family to help him through this torture - thats what i call it - a torture in his mind. He is at a stage where he cannot be left on his own as he has such massive fears from his phone ringing to thuder storms. It is a very frustrating situation and you wish you could just give him a kick up the ass and tell him to cop on but now i understand that that will never happen and he actually cant do anything bout his situation -if my Dad was diagonised with cancer in the morning all the family would be giving him all the support in the world and getting the best treatment possible, well to me at last i can see that this depression/anxiety disease that my Dad has is the same as any other disease only maybe harder as it is very hard to fully understand unless you have information and suppoprt in relation to the disease. I write this message in the hope that anyone who has a family member or friend suffering from depression/anxiety to please try and understand and give them all the support you can as they need it so much because they are just lonely dependent people who need all the love they can get!
That’s another reason people don’t seek help that they need. Cancer is easier to diagnose and more believable and accepted. Torture is a great descriptive word for this crippling disease. I am glad you are giving your dad the support he needs. Good luck!
Hi, I find it is really hard to use computer in front of people. When I do need to do that, I feel extremely nervous. Because of this, I hate training at work and it really limited my career. Do you have any advice? Many thanks.
Hey Julie! Keep telling yourself you are in charge, you are the trainer, you can do this! If you find yourself getting too nervous, you can make a joke about the computer (I hate it when they keep moving the tab key or something along those lines) to get yourself back in check and keep going!
