Seek evaluation by: Experienced professional (psychiatrist/psychologist) if causing impairment in school and socially. Combined therapy (behavioral, individual, family, and sometimes antidepressant medication for anxiety) may be effective. Person is anxious and inhibited and may develop social phobia. Other conditions may co-exist and require treatment. It is possible to achieve complete resolution. Best regards.
