Hi Tiirikka, I used to be shy. I got over it by understanding why I was shy. I was shy because I had low self-worth, couldn't deal with my feelings, had shame, no social skills, felt like I had no power and had weak personal boundaries. I learned social skills, increased my self-esteem to a healthy level, understood and then discarded my shame, empowered myself and took control of my life, learned how to deal with my feelings and learned the skills of personal boundaries. I can function now without shyness.
