A spectrum of shyness

A touch of timi***y is human, but too much shyness can be debilitating



You are jittery beginning a public speech, but afterward you are glad you did it.

Your mind goes blank on a first date, but eventually you relax and find things to talk about.

Your palms sweat in a job interview, but you ask and answer thoughtful questions.


You clam up and your heart races when you know people are looking at you.

You tremble when speaking up at a meeting, even if it is only to say your name.

You avoid starting conversations for fear of saying something awkward.


You will do anything, even skip work, to avoid being introduced to new people.

You have trouble swallowing in public, making it hard to dine out or go to parties.

You feel you never make a good impression and that you are a social failure.


You are free of nervousness only when alone and you can barely leave the house.

You constantly worry about being embarrassed or humiliated by others.

You have panic attacks and often leave the room rather than hold a conversation.
