Shyness is not a harmless personality trait. It is as detrimental to the psyche as a serious physical illness is to the body. Shyness deprives the joy of communication, reduces self-esteem, interferes with the realization of abilities, prevents the establishment of close relationships, leads to loneliness and depression. What are the causes of shyness? Is it possible to change your opinion about shyness and yourself? What do you need to do to learn to communicate adequately? You will find answers to these and many other important questions in the book. Shyness is a prison in which a person is both a guard and a prisoner. It's time to leave the dark dungeon and regain lost freedom!
