Help with shyness

[Flocka]

Ever since i came back to America (this summer) Ive become real shy with american people such as blacks and whites, and need help making friends and being social
I used to be a cool and very very funny person but now im just very quiet and shy. I really need help with this what should i do?

You should be yourself. Why are you so shy? Did anything happen to you while you were away? The best place to start is your classroom. You should make the class fun by cracking jokes once in a while, but don't become a class clown. You should join some school clubs or a sports team. It definitely helps boost self esteem and confidence. If you need more help, shoot me a pm

Feel positive about yourself, don't get frustrated and have fun. Remember, the real goal is to find someone who will like you for who you are.

I've been in your shoes. I wasted 3 years of my life in high school being a loner. But enough was enough. I didn't care what people thought of me after having no friends for freshman/sophomore/junior year and suddenly being captain of varsity volleyball team and chillest guy in room. Life will become miserable if you don't men your ways. Who really cares about what people will think? It's your life, your happiness.

See above.

It is very much possible. Breakfast gives you energy to last throughout your day. If you don't eat, you won't have energy, and you won't feel like being active.

 

I would recommend eating breakfast, I feel a lot more sociable in the morning after a good nights sleep and a good breakfast.

don't ever be afraid of anything. be proud of who you are.

Truly, be yourself... You said you were getting into sports this school year? Well, that will surely help you meet new people. If your school is anything like mine, you'll have a lot of practices which just gives more chances to meet people.
Meeting even just one person can help open up loads of new friends.

Be yourself and don't care if people find it odd if you change from being the loner to the cool guy in no time. I believe everyone will prefer yourself then the loner guy who has nothing to do with you

Joining a sports team is a good way to be sociable. Also, you might want to try helping out or volunteering in community events (if such exist in your area). In my town, we have a Neighborhood Outreach Center that helps out children in school, and provides a place where they can enjoy themselves, playing video games, basketball, or use a computer. Helping out these children for the last 4-5 years helped me to break my shy-ness, and I believe if you can take it amongst yourself to get to know a few people day by day, you'll be able to do the same.

In doing so, you'll be changing yourself and your lifestyle. Changing your diet, or a vital part of everyday life (less sleep) can leave you tiresome and irritated, as your body is not used to the changes. It's never bad to eat breakfast, however, as it is good for the processes within your body, and can really open up your day.

Just don't try to do everything at once and get exhausted. Take it slow.
