Introvert problem
Hi, Doctor I think I am an introvert because I don't talk to much people Sometimes I don't know how to talk also to some people mostly strangers and when I talk to my teachers elders etc I am more likely to stammer. I feel more tensed to talk to girls also. I fell that I talked wrong after having conversation with them . Once I loved a girl but I felt very scared and later I dropped the plan to propose her. I also don't know how to make the girls my friend (not ment girlfriend just normal friend) also. I always feel I am imperfect. So doctors please help me

Hey buddy
U did grt by expressing urself here. I can understand it’s challenging to do the same in a place where ur not sure how others think n feel abt u. No in that pursuit of protecting urself from any misjudgment, u choose to either not speak at all or sometimes stammer.
More often than not we all tend to overestimate a situation and underestimate ourselves.
I know it’s not easy for u. But u can start with taking baby steps in the direction which we can determine collaboratively.
Next Steps
Let’s explore together some ways u can overcome this hesitation and build more self confidence. U can do it. By becoming more self aware of ur strength. There is something unique abt u and that’s what u need to realise and remember buddy.

Hello practo user,
I understand it’s difficult for you to initiate conversations with strangers and make female friends. As mentioned by you, it may be due to personalty trait of being an introvert, but there may be other underlying factors for it. For better insight, it’s recommended to consult a clinical psychologist.
Next Steps

Health Tips
Try initiating or engaging in conversations with family members, set a goal for a day (I will talk to one stranger), smiling and nodding is a good way to communicate by non verbal cues, increase your social exposure gradually.
Reading a book or newspaper verbally may help to improve stammering.
