Is it bad being shy and quiet?!
Question: Is it bad being shy and quiet!?
I'm a really shy and quiet person and some people think its bad!. Like when i'm with my mom and her friends they always ask me why i'm so quiet and never talk!. Its just when I meet new people it takes me a while to open up to them, I have to warm up to them and that takes a while for me!. Whenever im around my friends I can easily talk to them about anything and be myself!. Sometimes I feel that if I say something people might think its stupid or dumb!. My mom thinks I might need to see a psychologist since im always quiet and never really talk!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I used to be EXACLY the same as you!. Than I thought to myself, "you know, I might as well just talk to people and get more active in conversations, if they think Im stupid for it, Im sure they will forget about it soon, and I'd bet its better than just bieng the shy person who never talks either!."
To get over this would be to get yourself to not be shy, you cant hope to grow out of it, instead you would grow into it!. although it is NOT bad, you will just never be very popular!. and if your kindof young, if its your moms friends, its pretty hard to talk to people older than you, even for people who dont have any shyness!. people your age are much easyer to talk to!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, it's not bad! But, it's always good to work on self-esteem!. If you're worried about saying something dumb, that is a problem that can be worked on!.

You are fine just the way you are unless you are really bothered by it - then a few sessions with a counselor may be helpful!. If you are ok with it - let this worry goWww@Answer-Health@Com
I'm the same way, I think its more important to by yourself!. So what if people think you are stupid or dumb, your true friends know who you really are!. I think most people have trouble just going up to someone they don't know and sparking conversation, if your interested in meeting new people try finding people who share the same interests as you, I have made some really good friends from sharing common interests and I always have something to talk about with them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
