Although shyness is a very common trait and almost everyone
experiences it at some level, it's often misunderstood. That's
because few of us ask about the frustration, anxiety, pain, and
triumphs in the life of a shy person. These experiences remain
hidden, and shy people may feel that nobody wants to know what's
going on in their hearts, minds, and souls. Their silence often
isolates them. In Shyness: The Ultimate Teen Guide, Bernardo J.
Carducci and Lisa Kaiser help young adults address a concern that
millions of teens around the world experience. The authors
emphasize that shyness is not a character flaw that needs to be
cured, or that shy people need to remake their personalities and
suddenly become extroverted. Instead, this book provides tips and
strategies to help shy teens control their shyness by changing the
thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that hold them back from reaching
their true potential. Chapters in this book look at *myths about
shyness *what makes people shy *what it feels like to be shy *how
shyness affects identity *how shy teens can meet people and make
friends *how shy people can tackle some of their biggest fears,
like dating *challenges beyond high school, such as leaving for
college and developing a career Throughout this book, teens learn
that the best-kept secret about shyness is that there's nothing
wrong with it. Designed to help readers understand and gain a
greater appreciation for who they are, Shyness: The Ultimate Teen
Guide will teach young adults-and those closest to them-what it
means to be successfully shy.
