| I'm not sure how to fix it but don't let your parents notice. If that happens they take you to someone and you end up getting diagnosed with Autism. trust me on that one. |

| It's as simple as talking to other people and being able to uphold a decent conversation. |

You're stuck with it for life. Why do you even want to change. If you are intelligent and strong enough in your line of work people won't really care.
That's what PR agents are for. |

@Boeing have you ever been to someone that diagnoses people with disorders? Without doing that you don't ever know. |

Oh, that kind of awkward. I pictured you as a pretty confident person, anyways. Sometimes when I experience an emotionally traumatic event, I just don't care anymore and I have lots of confidence. I can speak to anyone without caring. Maybe that's not what you had in mind, though.

@Boeing It's difficult for people who do not have/or have a social problem to give advice, as they know not what to do. For people who have no social problems, they do not find the difficulty in talking with others and thus does not get the situation, and their answers are as simple as just talk to others with similar interests. For people that have social problems, they do not know what to do to cross the difficult gap that prevents them for having a normal or starting a normal conversation, so they can not give very good advice as they themselves have not been able to cross the gaps themselves. tl;dr Nobody can give you advice to fix your problem, only you can fix it yourself tl;dr version of the tl;dr version You're screwed. |

here is some actual advice of mine : go up to someone else who is shy, never go to the really open people because if they share a lot about themselves, they'll be sure to share things about you, even deep, dark secrets. just sit down/stand next to them and say something along the lines of "hi, my name is(blablabla)". you don't even have to state your name. you can tell that you'll be good friends especially if you get into a long conversation without even knowing each other's names.
once you actually feel comfortable talking to that person, find out little details about each other, whats their favorite color, their birthday, their middle name? i understand that it is easier on the internet because you don't know anyone and befriending someone here doesn't actually involve physically walking up to someone. |

Many people are socially awkward. You'll often find that people who are looked up to had an obstacle to overcome in their life. Since they had strong will and determination they overshot and landed all the way in the stars.
Sorry, that sounded really cheesy. |
