I had this problem. I changed schools, I changed to a school where no-body knew me and I was free to be a new person and I decided that this person would not be a shy person. It really worked! It's hard to change around people you know because you feel weird. I'm not saying drop your other friends, but spend a little time without them to recreate yourself and buy the time you catch up with them you will be well practised at being a little more outgoing.
Another hint - try not too become too full on, strike a happy balance. A little bit of shyness is nice!

Being shy is a difficult life especially if you aren't able to say hi to anyone . One suggestion would be by staring to say hi to anyone and try meeting people on your own . May be at church on even at work . You may want to set yourself a goal to may be saying hi to just one person a day , perhaps the person where you buy your groceries or where you fill up your car . Then see how it feels and you will see its painless and actually very rewarding as well . You never know you are going to meet . Once you have accomplish this goal , try to strike a conversation with that person , it won't be easy but remember its one day at the time , perhaps you may want to seek help of a professional on this matter . I wish you good luck and remember try hard because you will be missing on a lot of things that can make you happy on a daily basis .

I understand exactly what you are saying. When I was in my teens, I was so shy to the point of ridiculous. But, in my 7th grade I joined the track and field team. Boy, did that bring me out of my shell!! I learned how to speak up for myself and share my opinions etc. Maybe you can check into a physical sport such as swimming, track, basketball whatever. It's amazing how you will learn how to socialize through sport. Good luck.

Just project yourself.
You can overcome this one.
Easy.
Meet some strangers. Say hello begin a conversation. You will gain your confidence and then the shyness will go completely away

move out of your hole. i do not know about where u live, but in dearborn, there are alot of activities. islamic ones. every friday and saturday a group of muslim youth get together. the main topic is religion obviously. and like right now we have a arab american festival. these are great ways. i can guess u have friends. go with your friends out. you will see so much people and how they act and talk. ur hi, will finally come out. u have to be aggressive.
