Shyness

I am a shy person. I seldom interact with strangers or people whom I'm not close with. I am afraid of approaching people.

After an incident which happened a few days ago, I went on to google up words that describes me. Agoraphobia and Autophobia. It means fear of leaving a safe place & fear of being alone or of oneself respectively.

Maybe because of that incident when I was 10 turned me into this type of person. The feeling of being alone made me feel scared and unsafe. I am also afraid to speak to strangers. Till now, no one was able to give me a sense of secureness except my family.

May I hope that I will overcome my phobias in a matter of time.
